Synthesis of mesoporous PtCu film modified with Ru submonolayer as catalyst for methanol electrooxidation

Abstract

A mesoporous PtCu catalyst modified with a Ru submonolayer is successfully synthesized by a facile electrochemical process of electrodeposition, dealloying and Ru underpotential deposition. The material has a large specific surface area comparable to nanoparticles (11 m2 g−1) and exhibits a promising catalyst activity for the methanol oxidation reaction.
