A General Method for Multimetallic Platinum Alloy Nanowires as Highly Active and Stable Oxygen Reduction Catalysts

Abstract: An unconventional class of high-performance Pt alloy multimetallic nanowires (NWs) is produced by a general method. The obtained PtNi NWs exhibit amazingly specific and mass oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) activities with improvement factors of 51.1 and 34.6 over commercial Pt/C catalysts, respectively, and are also stable in ORR conditions, making them among the most efficient electrocatalysts for ORR.

“…Therefore, the main issue of PtM NWs for ORR is the trade-off between activity and durability, making them impractical for fuel cell devices. In this regard, creating a new class of PtM NWs with high Pt utilization, catalytic activity, and durability is highly desirable, but remains a great challenge [74,75,93]. One representative work in this field was conducted by Li et al [71].…”

“…In the past decade, various experimental methods have been developed to synthesize sizedependent, high catalytic performance noble metal-based nanocomposites with diverse morphologies, such as polyhedron, concave, wire, plate, belt/ribbon, dendrite/branch and cage/frame structures [9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21]. Smaller size means higher surface-area-to-volume ratio, higher atomic utilization efficiency and more catalytic active sites.…”

“…Different noble metals polyhedrons/ concave expose atoms with different coordination numbers, thus have different surface energy and exhibit different catalytic performances [29][30][31]. 1D (wire) and 2D (plate, belt/ ribbon) noble metal-based nanostructures have high surface area (high atom utilization efficiency), high conductivity and large interfacial area contacting with the support in electrochemical reactions [12,15,32]. Dendrite and branch structures not only exhibit large surface area and high active sites, but also significantly relieve the aggregation happened in electrocatalytic stability test [9,33,34].…”

“…One of the most promising strategies is the introduction of non-precious 3d transition metals to form MPt bimetallic electrocatalysts (M=Fe, Co, and Ni) [4][5][6][7]. These MPt electrocatalysts with different shapes are proved to be a potential route for mitigating the cost as well as enhancing their catalytic performance [8,9]. This enhancement was attributed to the lattice contraction and downshift of the d-band center of Pt in the bimetallic structures [10].…”
