Tuning Surface Structure of Pd3Pb/PtnPb Nanocrystals for Boosting the Methanol Oxidation Reaction

Developing an efficient Pt‐based electrocatalyst with well‐defined structures for the methanol oxidation reaction (MOR) is critical, however, still remains a challenge. Here, a one‐pot approach is reported for the synthesis of Pd3Pb/PtnPb nanocubes with tunable Pt composition varying from 3.50 to 2....

Description
Summary:Developing an efficient Pt‐based electrocatalyst with well‐defined structures for the methanol oxidation reaction (MOR) is critical, however, still remains a challenge. Here, a one‐pot approach is reported for the synthesis of Pd3Pb/PtnPb nanocubes with tunable Pt composition varying from 3.50 to 2.37 and 2.07, serving as electrocatalysts toward MOR. Their MOR activities increase in a sequence of Pd3Pb/Pt3.50Pb
