Abstract

Pt-based intermetallic compounds M₂Pt with anti-CaF₂ type of crystal structure and counterpart elements (M) from groups 13 (Al, Ga, In) and 14 (Sn) were studied as electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in acidic media. Polar covalent bonding M–Pt with substantial charge transfer makes the difference between M₂Pt and elemental platinum. The compounds M₂Pt (M = Al, Ga, In) possess enhanced OER activity compared to elemental Pt and it improves during the partial on-going leaching of the M component. Therefore, the M₂Pt compounds act as precursors for formation of OER-active M_xPt_1−x layers.
