abstract = "An in-house synthesized activated biocarbon (aBC) and commercial
Vulcan carbon (V) were studied as PdSn catalyst supports for the
ethanol oxidation reaction (EOR) in an alkaline medium. The
results obtained showed that the PdSn/V electrocatalyst presented
much higher catalytic performance than the PdSn/aBC. These results
can be associated with the fact that the catalyst particles in the
PdSn/V electrocatalyst presented a higher SnO2 concentration
compared to PdSn/aBC. The presence of SnO2 has an electronic
effect that accelerates the adsorption of ethanol on the surface
of Pd, thus enhancing the ethanol oxidation kinetics and
contributing to a significant improvement in the PdSn/V catalytic
activity. However, no significant differences were observed in the
EOR mechanism.",
