Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Provided is a catalyst for oxygen reduction reaction comprising an alloy comprising at least one selected from Pt, Pd and Ir supported on a carbon carrier functionalized with poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM). The catalyst for oxygen reduction reaction has electronic ensemble effects by virtue of the carbon carrier functionalized with poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM), and thus shows improved oxygen reduction activity and durability as compared to conventional catalysts supported on carbon.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A catalyst for oxygen reduction reaction, comprising an alloy comprising at least one selected from Pt, Pd, and Ir supported on a carbon carrier functionalized with poly(n-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM); wherein the alloy is an alloy of a metal selected from the group consisting of Pt, Pd, and Ir with a transition metal selected from the group consisting of Co, Ni, Fe, Cu, Cr, and Mn; wherein a chemical bond between the transition metal and nitrogen of amide group of PNIPAM is formed on the surface of the alloy, and the chemical bond between the transition metal and nitrogen of amide group of PNIPAM prevents severe dissolution of the transition metal; and wherein the alloy comprising at least one selected from Pt, Pd, and Ir is present in an amount of 10-45 wt % based on the total weight of the catalyst; and wherein the alloy comprising at least one selected from Pt, Pd, and Ir is nanoparticles having a particle diameter 5-20 nm. 2. The catalyst for oxygen reduction reaction according to claim 1 , wherein the alloy comprising at least one selected from Pt, Pd, and Ir is nanoparticles. 3. The catalyst for oxygen reduction reaction according to claim 1 , which is represented by the following Chemical Formula 1 : XY/C-PNIPAM  [Chemical Formula 1] wherein X is at least one selected from the group consisting of Pt, Pd, and Ir, Y is at least one selected from the group consisting of Co, Ni, Fe, Cu, Cr, and Mn, C is carbon, and PNIPAM is poly(N-isopropylacrylamide).
