A free-standing Pt-nanowire membrane fabricated via a multistep templating process is used as an electrocatalyst for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). It exhibits remarkably high stability and good catalytic activity due to its unique nanowire-network structure. Detailed facts of importance specialist readers are published "Supporting Information".
