ABSTRACT Platinum-Ruthenium (PtRu)-based materials are considered the “holy grail” of
electrocatalysts for methanol oxidation reaction (MOR) in the fuel cells technique. However …

The reactions of electrooxidation of methanol and formic acid pertain to the most important
model electrocatalytic processes and are used in direct low-temperature fuel cells. The …

The rational design and construction of high-performance Ni-based methanol oxidation
catalyst is the key technology for direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC). In this work, Ni/Ni 3 S 2 …

A series of binary PtRu catalysts with different Pt/Ru atomic ratios (from 7: 3 to 3: 7) were
synthesized on a carbon support using the colloidal method; they were then used for …

Atomically controlled thin TiO 2 layers were coated onto a carbon-supported Pt nanoparticle
(Pt/C) surface using an atomic layer deposition (ALD) technique. Then, the resulting TiO 2 …

Herewith, an overview is provided on the recent developments in the utilization of
multimetallic catalysts to produce large amounts of molecular hydrogen, especially via the …

We used a high-frequency heating technique combined with electrochemical surface-
enhanced Raman spectroscopy to study the temperature-dependent electrooxidation …

Pt is widely used as the catalyst for methanol oxidation reaction (MOR) in direct methanol
fuel cells (DMFC). However, the high cost and limited supply of pure Pt limit the …

The decomposition of methanol is currently attracting research attention due to the potential
widespread applications of its end products. In this work, density functional theory (DFT) …

Poisoning devitalization of Pt catalyst caused by the absorption of carbon monoxide is an
important issue in direct Methanol Fuel Cell (DMFC). To solve this problem, this work …
