| The slow reaction kinetics of the anode catalytic reaction is one of the main reasons that limit the development of direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) technology. Among them, the catalyst support has a significant impact on the anode catalytic reaction. The support material determines performance, efficiency, stability and cost of the catalyst and even the fuel cell. Based on the analysis of more than 30 articles, this article classifies and reviews the carbon catalyst supports used in DMFC, including carbon, mesoporous carbon, carbon nanotubes (CNTs), graphene, and carbon fiber paper; non-carbon catalyst supports include metal organic frameworks (MOF), two-dimensional materials MXenes, titanium-based materials. |
