$AgNO_3$ has the characteristic is controlling the inhibition or promotion of particle growth by adsorbing onto specific facets of platinum nanoparticles. Therefore, in this study, $AgNO_3$ was added to control the shape of platinum nanoparticles during the liquid phase reduction process. Consequently, platinum cubes were synthesized when $AgNO_3$ of 1.1 mol% (with respect to the Pt concentration) was added into the solution. Platinum octahedrons were synthesized when 32 mol% (with respect to the Pt concentration) was added into the solution. These results demonstrate that the metal salt $AgNO_3$, effectively controlled the relative growth rates of each facet of Pt nano particles.

Improvement of the selectivity of nonenzymatic glucose based on mesoporous platinum ($H_1$-ePt) by using A.C. impedance is reported. The idea of the present work is based on the novel effect of the mesoporous electrode that the apparent exchange current due to glucose oxidation remarkably grows although the reaction kinetics on the surface is still sluggish. It is expected that the enlarged apparent exchange current on the mesoporous electrode can raise the sensitivity of admittance in A.C. impedance to glucose concentration. At a low frequency, A.C. impedance could become more powerful. The admittance at 0.01 Hz is even more sensitive to glucose than to ascorbic acid while amperometry exhibits the inverse order of sensitivity. This is the unique behavior that is neither observed by A.C. impedance on flat platinum electrode nor obtained by amperometry. The study shows how the combination of A.C. impedance and nano-structured surface can be applied to the detection of sluggish reaction such as electrochemical oxidation of glucose.

Platinum is a transition metal that is very resistant to corrosion. It is used as catalyst for converting methyl alcohol to formaldehyde, as catalytic converter in cars, for hydrocracking of heavy oils, in Fuel Cell devices etc. Moreover, Platinum compounds are important ingredient for cancer chemotherapy drugs. The nano forms of Platinum due to its unique physico-chemical properties that are not found in its bulk counterpart, has been found to be of great importance in electronics, optoelectronics, enzyme immobilization etc. The stability of Platinum nanoparticles has supported its use for the development of efficient and durable proton exchange membrane Fuel Cells. The present review concentrates on the use of Platinum conjugated with various metal or compounds, to fabricate nanocomposites, to enhance the efficiency of Platinum nanoparticles. The recent advances in the synthesis methods of different Platinum-based nanocomposites and their applications in Fuel Cell, sensors, bioimaging, light emitting diode, dye sensitized solar cell, hydrogen generation and in biosystems has also been discussed.

수소연료전지자동차(FCV)의 핵심은 고분자고체형연료전지(Polymer Solid Fuell Cell: PEFC)이고 전지 중에서 전기화학적 전기를 발생하는 핵심 소재는 백금촉매이다. 백금은 남아프리카와 러시아 등에 편재되어있고, 백금의 세계생산량은 연간 약 178톤이고 고가이므로 리싸이클링 한다. 현재 PEFC에 Pt를 사용하는 양은 $0.2{\sim}0.1mg/cm^2$인데, 전지의 가격을 줄여서 FCV보급을 확대하기 위하여 사용하는 Pt양을 $0.05{\sim}0.03mg/cm^2$까지 감소시키는 것을 목표로 하여 각국이 연구 개발하고 있다. 나노배금 제조기술은 건식법과 습식법으로 크게 나누며 습식환원법을 중심으로 제조하는 방식이 Pt를 제조하는데 유리하다. 나노Pt를 이용하여 폴리올법, 개량형 Cu-UPD/Pt 치환법 및 나노캡슐법 등에 의해 $Pt-Pd/Al_2O_3$, Pt/C, Pt/GCB, Pt/Au/C, PtCo/C, PtPd/C 등의 Pt촉매가 연구 개발되고 있으며, Pt촉매의 활성향상 및 안정화 기술 등이 보고되고 있다. 본고는 나노Pt와 나노Pt촉매의 제조기술 및 폐 촉매의 리사이클링 및 Pt촉매의 응용기술 경향을 조사 분석하였다.

연료전지 폐스택으로부터 백금을 회수하여 재사용하기 위하여 백금의 농도, pH, 환원제, 분산제의 영향을 살펴본 결과 1 mM $H_2PtCl_6$:10 mM $NaBH_4$:8 mM Cl4TABr = 1:0.4:0.4(vol.%), pH4, $50^{\circ}C$, 160 rpm, 10분 조건에서 최적 백금 나노 입자 제조 조건을 확립하였다. 시용 후 폐기된 MEA로부터 산침출을 통해 회수되어진 백금 침출 용액으로부터 백금 모사 용액과 동일한 조건에서 5 nm 이하의 백금 나노 입자를 합성하였다. 백금 모사 용액과 백금 침출 용액으로부터 합성된 백금 나노 입자를 XPS 분석을 통해 백금 이온에서 zero-valent의 백금 나노 입자로 환원되었음을 확인하였다.

Nanoparticulate platinum (II) (nano Pt) is a powerful antioxidant that is widely used to scavenge reactive oxygen species (ROS). The antioxidant activity of nano Pt has gained attention as a potentially useful therapeutic for a variety of diseases including cancer and aging. In the present study, we prepared nanoparticulate saponin-Pt (II) (nano saponin-Pt) conjugates using the ethanol reduction method to enhance the permeability and retention effect of Pt. The nano saponin-Pt conjugates were found to restore the viability of approximately 40% of 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB)-treated RAW 264.7 cells. In addition, we found that nano saponin-Pt conjugates acted as a potent antioxidant that reduced the production of ROS and inhibited activation of the MAP kinase pathway and MIP-2 gene expression in response to DNFB. These results provide insight into the potential usefulness of nano saponin-Pt conjugates as a treatment for contact hypersensitivity.

The electrochemical detection of As(III) was investigated on a platinum-iron(III) nanoparticles modified multiwalled carbon nanotube on glassy carbon electrode(nanoPt-Fe(III)/MWCNT/GCE) in 0.1 M $H_2SO_4$. The nanoPt-Fe(III)/MWCNT/GCE was prepared via continuous potential cycling in the range from -0.8 to 0.7 V (vs. Ag/AgCl), in 0.1 M KCl solution containing 0.9 mM $K_2PtCl_6$ and 0.6 mM $FeCl_3$. The Pt nanoparticles and iron oxide were co-electrodeposited into the MWCNT-Nafion composite film on GCE. The resulting electrode was examined by cyclic voltammetry (CV), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and anodic stripping voltammetry (ASV). For the detection of As(III), the nanoPt-Fe(III)/MWCNT/GCE showed low detection limit of 10 nM (0.75 ppb) and high sensitivity of $4.76\;{\mu}A{\mu}M^{-1}$, while the World Health Organization's guideline value of arsenic for drinking water is 10 ppb. It is worth to note that the electrode presents no interference from copper ion, which is the most serious interfering species in arsenic detection.

Plasmonic effects of gold and platinum alloy nanoparticles (Au-Pt NPs) and their comparison to size was studied. Various factors including ratios of gold and platinum salt, temperature, pH and time of addition of reducing agent were studied for their effect on particle size. The size of gold and platinum alloy nanoparticles increases with increasing concentration of Pt NPs. Temperature dependent synthesis of gold and platinum alloy nanoparticles shows decrease in size at higher temperature while at lower temperature agglomeration occurs. For pH dependent synthesis of Au-Pt nanoparticles, size was found to be increased by increase in pH from 4 to 10. Increasing the time of addition of reducing agent for synthesis of pure and gold-platinum alloy nanoparticles shows gradual increase in size as well as increase in heterogeneity of nanoparticles. The size and elemental analysis of Au-Pt nanoparticles were characterized by UV-Vis spectroscopy, XRD, SEM and EDX techniques.
