Abstract
En 中文
Tailoring the surface structure of the mesoporous metal catalysts is pivotal for influencing both the catalytic activity and selectivity. Through the dealloying of bimetallic alloys, surface modification is achieved by dissolving unstable components, thereby forming a multitude of catalytically active sites. In this study, highly enhanced electrocatalysts are fabricated via chemical etching of mesoporous AuCu alloy nanoparticles prepared through the self-assembly of micelles. The presence of large mesoporosity (>10 nm) with rich defect sites on the surface, along with the synergistic effect arising from the AuCu bimetallic alloy, effectively boosts electrocatalytic performance for the ethanol oxidation reaction. This strategy demonstrates a promising strategy to further enhance the catalytic performance of Au-based mesoporous nanoparticles by eliminating the unstable metal component and refining the mesoporous structure with an abundance of various active sites.
