Ag@Pt core-shell nanoparticles with different Ag/Pt ratios were supported on multi walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and used as electrocatalysts for PEMFC. The morphology of the electrocatalyst samples was characterized by XRD and HRTEM. It was found that the Ag@Pt/MWCNTs catalyst exhibited a core-shell nanostructure. And the CV and LSV results demonstrated that such core-shell materials exhibited attractive electrocatalytic activity. Moreover, the specific electrochemically active area (EAS) of the Ag@Pt/MWCNTs catalyst is 70.63 m(2) g(-1), which is higher than the values reported in the literature.
