The depositing process parameters such as the solution pH value,Pt content and treatment temperature were analyzed. The experimental results show that the optimumprocess parameters to prepare Pt/CNTs are the solution pH value of 7.0, the theoretical Pt contentof 25 percent (mass fraction) and the heating temperature of 500 deg C, under the conditions thebest performance of the proton exchange membrane fuel cell can be obtained and its voltage can reach580 mV at a current density of 500 mA/cm^2.展开更多
