摘要
The shape of metal alloy nanocrystals plays an important role in catalytic performances. Many methods developed so far in controlling the morphologies of nanocrystals are however limited by the synthesis that is often material and shape specific. Here we show using a gas reducing agent in liquid solution (GRAILS) method, different Pt alloy (Pt-M, M = Co, Fe, Ni, Pd) nanocrystals with cubic and octahedral morphologies can be prepared under the same kind of reducing reaction condition. Abroad range of compositions can also be obtained for these Pt alloy nanocrystals. Thus, this GRAILS method is a general approach to the preparation of uniform shape and composition-controlled Pt alloy nanocrystals. The area-specific oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) activities of Pt3Ni catalysts at 0.9 V are 0.85 mA/cm(Pt)(2) for the nanocubes, and 1.26 mA/cm(Pt)(2) for the nano octahedra. The ORR mass activity of the octahedral Pt3Ni catalyst reaches 0.44 A/mg(Pt).
