The electrochemical measurements illustrated that the electrocatalytic activity of the PdCo bimetallic hollow nanospheres for the oxidation of formic acid is much higher than that of the Pd solid nanospheres.展开更多

Its performances were compared with that prepared by the traditional liquid phase reaction method. The results demonstrate that the electrocatalytic activity of Pt/C catalyst with solid phase reaction method for methanol oxidation is higher than that with liquid phase reaction method. XRD and TEM measurements indicate that the Pt/C(S) possesses low crystalline extent and small particle size.展开更多

When the weight ratio of PWA to Pt/C is 1, the composite catalyst increases the reduction current of oxygen by about 38% and decreases the oxidation current of methanol by about 76% compared with that of the Pt/C catalyst.展开更多
