Boyang Zhang et al.

Summary: In this study, a novel core-shell structured Pt@NC/C catalyst was developed, with ultrafine Pt nanoparticles as the core and ultra-thin nitrogen-doped carbon layers as the shell. The catalyst exhibited excellent activity for the alkaline hydrogen oxidation reaction, with high mass activity and specific activity. Moreover, it showed good anti-CO poisoning ability. The interaction between Pt and the carbon layer enhanced hydroxyl adsorption, promoting reaction kinetics and improving CO resistance. This work provides a facile and feasible strategy for designing efficient and CO-resistant Pt-based catalysts.

Shuang Wang et al.

Summary: This study proposes a method to accelerate the alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) through the preparation of RuNi nanoalloy confined within N-doped carbon shells.

This work provides insights into the relationship between the performance of HER and the electrochemical behavior of the intermediate adsorbed state, and offers a pathway for the rational design of efficient electrocatalysts for HER.
