One-step facile synthesis of carbon-supported PdAu nanoparticles and their electrochemical property and stability

Well-crystallized PdAu alloy nanoparticles with the average size of 2-5 nm supported on Ketjen Black (KB) were successfully fabricated from the metal wire electrodes via a one-step solution plasma process in water at atmospheric pressure. Multi-scan cyclic voltammetry showed they have better electrochemical stability in alkaline than in acidic solution.245
