主 题:chemical etching crystal-facet engineering synergistic effect ethanol electrooxidation CO resistibility
摘 要:It is generally accepted that the interface effect and surface electronic structure of catalysts have vital impact on catalytic *** and tailoring the atomic arrangement of interface structure are of great importance for ***,we proposed a simple method to synthesize etching-PtNiCu nanowires(e-PtNiCu NWs)enclosed by both(110)and(100)facets evolving from PtNiCu nanowires(PtNiCu NWs)mainly with(111)facets by selectively etching *** acetic acid etching treatment,the e-PtNiCu NWs possess high total proportions(88.3%)of(110)and(100)facets,whereas the(111)facet is dominant in PtNiCu NWs(64%)by qualitatively and quantitatively *** the structure characterizations and performance tests of ethanol electrooxidation reaction(EOR),we find that the e-PtNiCu NWs display remarkably performance for EOR,which is nearly 4.5 times and 1.5 times enhancement compared with the state-of-the-art Pt/C catalyst,as well as 2.2 and 1.4 times of PtNiCu NWs,in specific activity and mass activity,*** improved performance of e-PtNiCu NWs is attributed to synergistic catalytic effect between(110)and(100)facets that not only significantly decreases the onset potentials of adsorbed CO(CO_(ads))but also favors the oxidation of CO_(ads)on the surface of ***,thermodynamics and kinetic studies indicate that the synergistic effect of both(110)and(100)facets in e-PtNiCu NWs can decrease the activation energy barrier and facilitate the charge transfer during the *** work provides a promising approach to construct catalysts with tunable surface electronic structure towards efficient electrocatalysis.
