Abstract

Single-crystal and fern-like Pt nanorods (Pt-NR) were electrodeposited on carbon paper. The electrocatalytic activity of prepared Pt-NR electrodes, as determined by the catalyst mass activity (MA) and specific activity (SA) for the methanol oxidation reaction, are respectively 4.59 times and 10.54 times better than that of a commercial Pt-black catalyst.
