In view of a possible use as anode materials for low-temperature fuel cells, the electro catalytic activity of Pt-Sn catalysts for methanol and ethanol oxidation has been widely investigated. This short review examines the effects of Pt-Sn structural characteristics, such as degree of alloying and Sn oxidation state, depending on the synthesis method, on the electro catalytic activity for methanol and ethanol oxidation.
