Relation of surface structure to the electrocatalytic activity of tungsten carbide

  • 1. United Technologies Research Center, East Hartford, CT

Description

This study relates the surface composition and structure of W/sub x/C to the preparation method and to its electrocatalytic activity for hydrogen oxidation in acid. Auger electron spectroscopy is used to examine the composition of the surface and x-ray photoemission spectroscopy to examine the valence states of the atoms at the surface. Structural characterization of the bulk was accomplished using x-ray diffraction
