Catalytic Activity of Anisotropic Gold Nanoplates towards Oxygen Reduction

dc.abstract.enGlassy carbon electrode (GCE) coated with anisotropic gold nanoplates (aAuNPs) was used for the study of oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in 0.5 M sulfuric acid instead of bulk gold electrodes. The electrode cleaning/activation procedure lead to the removal of any charged and uncharged residues on the gold nanoplates, leaving the nanostructured surface highly active towards oxygen reduction. The advantages: much lower overpotential and larger current densities of oxygen reduction are ascribed to the unique nanostructures present on the carb on electrode surface-the gold nanoplates. They are rich in edges providing a large population of Au (100) sites with unsaturated coordination exposed to the solution, and catalytically active. Measurements performed using a rotating disc electrode, modified with the gold nanoplates, confirmed that ORR proceeds via two separate steps: oxygen is reduced to hydrogen peroxide, and the peroxide is further reduced in a two-electron reduction to water.
