Description
A fuel cell that burns methanol needs a catalyst that resists its own exhaust, since carbon monoxide fouls the platinum heart. Mehri-Saddat Ekrami-Kakhki and four co-authors build a layered home for that platinum in 2025. A hollow plastic sponge, laced with a crab-shell polymer, holds specks of a copper-zinc-iron oxide beside the platinum.
Five rival builds face off, from plain supports to single-metal kin. The three-metal specks lift the burn rate, stretch the catalyst's life, and cut the fouling, all at once. A full kit of probes — heat rays, crystal reads, element maps — proves the build is what the recipe claims. Cleaner methanol power is the end in view.
