Abstract
A bath for electrodeposition of platinum nanoparitcles on low-cost graphite substrates was developed to attach nanoparticles directly onto a substrate, and electrochemical characteristics of the electrodeposition of platinum nanoparticles were investigated. The reaction mechanism was examined by the analysis of polarization behavior. Cyclic voltammetry measurements revealed that the elecrodeposition of platinum nanoparticles was limited by mass transfer. The chronoamperometric study showed an instantaneous nucleation mechanism during the electrodeposition of platinum nanoparticles on graphite. Because graphite is much cheaper than other carbon-based substrates, the electrodeposition of platinum nanoparticles on the graphite is expected to have useful applications.
