چکیده

We for the first time report a facile, wet-chemical strategy for the high-yield (approximately 100%) synthesis of ultralong Pt-on-Pd bimetallic nanowires (NWs) with the cores being Pd NWs and the shells being made of dendritic Pt, which exhibit high surface area and enhanced electrocatalytic activity towards methanol oxidation reaction.

Superior electrocatalytic activity from nanodendritic structure consisting of a PtFe bimetallic core and Pt shell.

A novel PtFe@Pt core-shell nanostructure with a PtFe bimetallic core and a nanodendrite Pt shell was fabricated through a facile aqueous reduction process. Without any capping agent and/or surfactant, a clean Pt surface can be obtained. The novel nanostrutured crystals show superior electrocatalytic performance towards methanol oxidation due to the enlarged Pt surface area and the modified elec...

Enhanced Electrocatalytic Activity of Pt-M (M= Co, Fe) Chitosan Supported Catalysts for Ethanol Electrooxidation in Fuel Cells

Here, metal nanoparticles were synthesized by chemical reduction of the corresponding metal salts in the presence of chitosan polymer. Binary and ternary metallic-chitosan Pt-Fe-CH, Pt-Co-CH and Pt-Fe-Co-CH nanocomposites were prepared. Transmission electron microscopy images and UV–Vis spectra of the nanocomposites confirmed the presence of the metal nanoparticles. The electrocatalytic activit...

Nanoporous pt-co alloy nanowires: fabrication, characterization, and electrocatalytic properties.

Nanoporous Pt-Co alloy nanowires were synthesized by electrodeposition of Co-rich Pt(1)Co(99) alloy into anodic aluminum oxide (AAO) membranes, followed by a dealloying treatment in a mild acidic medium. These nanowires consist of porous skeletons with tiny pores of 1-5 nm and crystalline ligaments of 2-8 nm. Morphological and compositional evolutions of the porous Pt-Co nanowires upon dealloyi...

Hollow Ag@Pd core-shell nanotubes as highly active catalysts for the electro-oxidation of formic acid.

Ag nanowires are prepared as templates by a polyol reduction process. Then Ag nanotubes coated with a thin layer of Pd are synthesized through sequential reduction accompanied with the galvanic displacement reaction. The products show a hollow core-shell nanotubular structure, as demonstrated by detailed characterizations. The Ag@Pd can significantly improve the electrocatalytic activity toward...
