Developing highly active as well durable oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) electrocatalysts are still imperative for clean and efficient energy conversion device, such fuel cells metal-air battery. For this purpose maximize the utilization of noble Pt, we present here a facile, yet scalable strategy high-precise synthesis 1-nm-thick Pt3Ni bimetallic alloy nanowires (Pt3Ni BANWs). The seed-mediated growth mechanism BANWs was identified subsequently. As expected, delivered enhanced mass activity...

Abstract Precise manipulation of the coordination environment single‐atom catalysts (SACs), particularly simultaneous engineering multiple shells, is crucial to maximize their catalytic performance but remains challenging. Herein, we present a general two‐step strategy fabricate series hollow carbon‐based SACs featuring asymmetric Zn−N 2 O moieties simultaneously modulated with S atoms in higher shells Zn centers (n≥2; designated as −S). Systematic analyses demonstrate that synergetic...

Iron corrosion causes a great damage to the economy due function attenuation of iron-based devices. However, products can be used as active materials for some electrocatalytic reactions, such oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Herein, on Fe foams (FF) synthesize effective self-supporting electrocatalysts OER, leading "turning waste into treasure," is regulated. A dual chloride aqueous system "NaCl-NiCl2 " employed tailor structures and OER properties layers. The behaviors identify that Cl-...

Pd-based materials are promising electrocatalysts for the formic acid oxidation reaction (FAOR) but suffer from poor durability due to poisoning of adsorbed carbon monoxide species (COads). In this work, PdBi ordered intermetallic (O-PdBi) nanoparticles were prepared in an effort mitigate formation like COads through isolating Pd atoms. The enhanced antipoisoning capability O-PdBi, relative Pd, gave rise superior activity and stability during FAOR. Differential electrochemical mass...

Concentration polarization issues and lithium dendrite formation, which associate inherently with the commercial dual-ion electrolytes, restrict performance of ion batteries. Single conducting polymer electrolytes (SIPEs) high transference numbers (t + ≈ 1) are being intensively studied to circumvent these issues.
