Abstract
For fully leveraging the advantages of PtRu alloys as electrocatalysts to catalyze methanol oxidation reaction (MOR), we herein report an ambient-temperature method for directly synthesizing carbon-supported PtRu alloy nanoparticles with ultrafine sizes in an organic medium towards high-efficiency MOR. This strategy involves the dodecylamine (DDA)-mediated extraction of Pt and Ru ions from water to toluene, and then mixing them with carbon substrate, followed by NaBH4 reduction in the same organic medium. Profiting from their ultrafine sizes of ca. 1.68 nm, the as-prepared PtRu nanoparticles supported on carbon substrate show a mass activity of 0.93 A mg−1 and a specific activity of 10.56 mA cm−2, respectively, both of which are much higher than those of the commercial PtRu/C catalyst.
为了充分利用PtRu合金作为电催化剂催化甲醇氧化反应(MOR)的优势,本文报道了一种在有机介质中直接合成碳负载的超细PtRu合金纳米颗粒以实现高效MOR的环境温度方法。该策略包括十二烷基胺(DDA)介导的Pt和Ru离子从水中提取到甲苯,然后将它们与碳底物混合,然后在相同的有机介质中进行NaBH4还原。由于其超细尺寸约为1.68 nm,所制备的PtRu/C纳米颗粒负载在碳衬底上,其质量活性为0.93 a mg−1,比活性为10.56 mA cm−2,两者均远高于商用PtRu/C催化剂。
