Metallic alloys at the nanometer scale (nanoalloys) have great potential in electrocatalysis. The interaction among different components in nanoalloys may modify the electronic configurations of active metals and generate synergistic effects, boosting their performance in terms of activity, durability and selectivity in electrocatalytic reactions.
Alloying with cheap transition metals is an effective way to reduce the usage of relatively expensive metals, e.g. Pt and Pd. Usually, the nanoalloys…
