摘要
The synthesis, characterization and kinetics of the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) of a Pt monolayer shell on Pd(hollow), or Pd-Au(hollow) core electrocatalysts are reported. Comparisons between the ORR catalytic activity of the electrocatalysts with hollow cores and those of Pt solid and Pt hollow nanoparticles were obtained using the rotating disk electrode technique. Hollow nanopartieles were made using Ni or Cu nanoparticles as sacrificial templates. The Pt ORR specific and mass activities of the electrocatalysts with hollow cores were found to be considerably higher than those of the electrocatalysts with solid cores. This enhanced Pt activity is attributed to the smooth surface morphology and hollow-induced lattice contraction. In addition, the hollow particles have a mass-saving geometry.
