The effect of functionalization of activated carbon with ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) on surface functional groups, the structure of carbon-supported Pd nanoparticles, and the electrocatalytic performance of Pd catalysts were investigated. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) indicate that N-containing groups are introduced to the carbon surface via EDTA treatment. X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) spectra, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and electrochemical measurements demonstrate that the electrocatalytic activity and stability for carbon-supported Pd catalysts were substantially enhanced when the carbon support was treated with EDTA, although the Pd particles size increased slightly. The improved electrocatalytic performance may be due to enhanced interactions between the Pd particles and the carbon support, resulting in an improved Pd utilization. Electrochemical impedance spectrum analysis further reveals that the Pd catalyst on EDTA-treated carbon (Pd/C-E) displayed a lower charge-transfer resistance for the electro-oxidation reaction of formic acid.
