Transition metal nitride and carbide have several similarities in their preparatory methods,
properties, and applications. Synthetic parameters have remained the main factors that …

Of the many candidate fuels for low-temperature fuel cells, one of the most promising is
formic acid. Although it has been investigated as such for nearly 50 years, rapid advances in …

Single atomic Pt catalyst can offer efficient utilization of the expensive platinum and provide
unique selectivity because it lacks ensemble sites. However, designing such a catalyst with …

Formic acid as a natural biomass and a CO2 reduction product has attracted considerable
interest in renewable energy exploitation, serving as both a promising candidate for …

The decomposition of HCOOH on Pd surfaces over a potential range of practical relevance
to hydrogen production and fuel cell anode operation was probed by combining high …

Direct formic acid fuel cells (DFAFCs) have attracted growing attention as a promising power
source because of their high energy density, facile power-system integration, and …

A three-dimensional interconnected graphene monolith was used as an electrode support
for pulsed electrochemical deposition of platinum (Pt) nanoparticles. Pt nanoparticles with …

Core-shell nanoparticles often exhibit improved catalytic properties due to the lattice strain
created in these core-shell particles. Herein, we demonstrate the synthesis of core-shell …

We have rationally synthesized and optimized catalytic nanoparticles consisting of a gold
core, covered by a palladium shell, onto which platinum clusters are deposited (Au@ Pd …

Phase engineering of Pt-based intermetallic catalysts has been demonstrated as a
promising strategy to optimize catalytic properties for a direct formic acid fuel cell. Pt-Bi …
