“…Ni-containing Pt-based alloys have been synthesized and tested for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) [28,33,35,39,41,[47][48][49], and the CO [18,38], methanol [8,31,37,41,[50][51][52][53] and ethanol [8,22,29,[44][45][46] oxidation reactions, with generally better results than using Pt/C and the same alloys in the absence of Ni. The oxidation of ethylene glycol and glycerol on one-dimensional Pt 3 Ni nanowires and nanorods has been also studied [54], with the conclusion that it presented higher mass and specific activities than Pt/C.…”
