Abstract
The present disclosure is directed to electrocatalytic devices having an electrodeposited MOx/ICP composite thin films for performing oxygen reduction reactions.
Claims7
An oxygen reduction reaction device, comprising:
- a composite film, comprising:
- a homogeneously dispersed composite film consisting essentially of a plurality of manganese oxide particles dispersed in an intrinsically conductive polymer that is a component of a cathode of an electrocatalytic device;
- wherein the intrinsically conductive polymer is selected from a group consisting of PEDOT and ProDOT;
- wherein the homogeneously dispersed composite film is formed by electrodeposition of the manganese oxide particles with the PEDOT or ProDOT to homogeneously disperse the manganese oxide particles in the intrinsically conductive polymer to form a composite film consisting of MnO2 and PEDOT or ProDOT;
- and
- wherein the composite film performs an oxygen reduction reaction.
