Abstract

A novel precious metal-free electrode catalyst SnO₂/m-ZSM-5 nanocomposite has been successfully synthesized. This SnO₂/m-ZSM-5 nanocomposite shows high and stable electrochemical catalytic activity for methanol oxidation, which is comparable to Pt/C. The high electrochemical performance has been attributed to the synergetic catalytic effects between the mesoporous ZSM-5 matrix and the loaded SnO₂ nanocrystals.
