One-pot synthesis of PtNi alloy nanoflowers supported on multi-walled carbon nanotubes with superior electrocatalytic activity for the oxygen reduction
چکیده انگلیسی


• Easy preparation of PtNi alloy nanoflower catalyst by one-pot reaction.
• PtNi alloys exhibit superior structure stability compared with Pt/C (JM).
• Enhanced catalytic activity for the ORR of the nanocatalyst in acid media.

Well-defined PtNi alloy nanoflowers supported on multi-walled carbon nanotubes (PtNi-H/MWCNTs) are successfully synthesized through a novel and potentially general one-pot reaction that exploits an in situ sacrificial template. The detailed morphology, composition, and structure of the PtNi alloy nanoflowers are investigated by transmission electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, nitrogen adsorption–desorption isotherms and X-ray diffraction. The results demonstrate that the PtNi-H/MWCNTs are highly porous. The electrocatalytic activity and stability of the PtNi-H/MWCNTs for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) are investigated by rotating disk electrode voltammetry in 0.1 mol L−1 HClO4 solution. The electrochemical tests indicated that PtNi-H/MWCNTs exhibited superior ORR activity along with satisfactory stability and methanol-tolerance under acidic conditions, which made them promising electrocatalysts.
