Wormholelike mesoporous carbons (WMCs) with three different pore diameters (D-P), namely WMC-F7 (D-p = 8.5 nm), WMC-F30 (D-p =4.4 nm), and WMC-F0 (D-p =3.1 nm) are prepared via a modified sol-gel process.

Then PtRu nanoparticles with the particle size (40 of 3.2 nm supported on WMCs are synthesized with a modified pulse microwave-assisted polyol method. It is found that the pore diameter of WMCs plays an important role in the electrochemical activity of PtRu toward alcohol electrooxidation reaction. PtRu/WMC-F7 with D-p > 2d(pt) exhibits the largest electrochemical surface area (ESA) and the highest activity toward methanol electrooxidation. With the decrease in Dp, PtRu/WMC-F30 and PtRu/WMC-F0 have much lower ESA and electrochemical activity, especially for the isopropanol electrooxidation with a larger molecular size. When D-p is more than twice d(pt), the mass transfer of reactants and electrolyte are easier, and thus more PtRu nanoparticles can be utilized and the catalysts activity can be enhanced.
