This paper reported our extensive efforts in the design of concave PdRu nanocubes via a facile wet-chemical strategy. Different from the previously reported PdRu nanostructures, the as-prepared concave PdRu nanocubes combined the advantages of fascinating nanocube structure, synergistic and electronic effect as well as high surface area. All of these beneficial terms endow them to exhibit superior electrocatalytic activity and long-term stability towards ethylene glycol oxidation as compared with commercial Pd/C. Our work highlights the significance of shape-controlled of PdRu nanostructures over the electrocatalytic performances towards the electrooxidation of ethylene glycol (EG), which will pave up a new strategy for boosting the development of renewable and clean energy technology.
