Halogen Tailoring of Platinum Electrocatalyst with High CO Tolerance for Methanol Oxidation Reaction

The catalytic activity of platinum for CO oxidation depends on the interaction of electron donation and back-donation at the platinum center. Here we demonstrate that the platinum bromine nanoparticles with electron-rich properties on bromine bonded with sp-C in graphdiyne (PtBr NPs/Br-GDY), whic…
