Pt nanodendrites with a PtIr alloy surface structure exhibit excellent stability toward acidic hydrogen evolution reaction

The development of effective and stable electrocatalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in acidic electrolytes is a significant challenge. In this work, homogeneous Pt nanodendrites (Pt NDs) with a PtIr shell were successfully synthesized by a two-step wet chemical method. This open th…
