چکیده

Hollow PdCu alloyed nanocubes were successfully synthesized by a novel one-pot template-free strategy through tuning the surface energy difference of the crystal planes by alloying. Compared with the solid nanoparticles, the hollow nanocubes exhibit superior electrocatalytic activity and stability for formic acid oxidation.

Facile synthesis of palladium right bipyramids and their use as seeds for overgrowth and as catalysts for formic acid oxidation.

Controlling the shape and thus facets of metal nanocrystals is an effective way to enhance their performance in catalytic reactions. While Pd nanocrystals with a myriad of shapes have been successfully prepared with good uniformity and in high yield, Pd right bipyramids (RBPs) that have a singly twinned structure have been elusive. We report a facile route based on polyol reduction for the synt...

Facile synthesis of ultrathin single-crystalline palladium nanowires with enhanced electrocatalytic activities.

Ultrathin single-crystalline palladium nanowires (PdNWs) were rapidly prepared using a facile one-step soft-template-directed method. The utilization of dioctadecyldimethylammonium chloride and an appropriate crystallization temperature determined the construction of PdNWs together. The obtained PdNWs exhibited good electrocatalytic performance toward formic acid oxidation.

Au/Pd core-shell nanoparticles with varied hollow Au cores for enhanced formic acid oxidation

A facile method has been developed to synthesize Au/Pd core-shell nanoparticles via galvanic replacement of Cu by Pd on hollow Au nanospheres. The unique nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, and electrochemical measurements. When the concentration of the Au solution was decrea...
