PtRu mesoporous nanospheres as electrocatalysts with enhanced performance for oxidation of methanol

Year: 2024

Type: article

Abstract: ). Meanwhile, PtRu (2 : 1) MNs/C retained much more current density (84.7%) than Pt MNs/C (17.7%) after 500 cycles. The improved catalytic performance is due to several factors, including the formation of a mesoporous nanostructure with abundant active sites and the favorable effects of the Ru species. This work provides guidance toward designing and fabricating effective Pt-based electrocatalysts for DMFC applications.
