Strong metal-support interaction improves activity and stability of Pt electrocatalysts on doped metal oxides.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Niobium and antimony doped tin oxide loose-tubes decorated with Pt nanoparticles present outstanding mass activity and stability, exceeding those of a reference carbon-based electrocatalyst. Physico-chemical characterisation and in particular X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy demonstrate that this observation can be ascribed to the strong metal-support interaction promoting electroactivity and Pt anchoring on doped metal oxide supports.
