Pd-Y alloy catalyst and method for preparing the same, fuel cell comprising the catalyst

摘要

Disclosed are a platinum (Pt)-free, palladium (Pd)-yttrium (Y) alloy catalyst having superior oxygen reduction reaction activity and stability, a method for preparing the same, and a fuel cell including the catalyst. Since the Pt-free Pd—Y catalyst is inexpensive, it may be usefully applicable for fuel cells, particularly polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells.
