We report a facile one-step strategy to fabricate an Au/gC 3 N 4 contact system with different
Au contents. Morphology observation shows that Au nanoparticles with an average diameter …

A straightforward approach is developed for fabrication of a visible-light-driven Ag/g-C3N4
catalyst. Morphological observation shows that the g-C3N4 sheets are decorated with highly …

Chemical synthesis of platinum–rare earth metal (Pt–RE) nanoalloys, one of the most active
catalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction, has been a formidable challenge, mainly due to …

Abstract At present, Co, Bi, CoBi, and CoBi/CNT catalysts are prepared via co-precipitation
method and sodium borohydride (NaBH 4) reduction method for NaBH 4 electrooxidation …

Abstract Polypyrrole-carbon (PPy-C) composites having different amounts of carbon (5–35
wt.%) decorated with platinum nanoparticles (Pt/PPy-C) were prepared and investigated for …

Direct fuel cells fed with liquid carbon-free fuels (borohydride, ammonia-borane, hydrazine)
present a number of benefits compared to state-of-the-art proton-exchange membrane fuel …

Direct borohydride fuel cells are a particular class of alkaline direct liquid fuel cells that show
interesting performances for mobile applications owing to the use of sodium borohydride …

Au-based bimetallic electrocatalysts supported on multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs)
were investigated to improve the selectivity and activity of the catalysts for direct borohydride …

Abstract The Borohydride Oxidation Reaction (BOR), the anode reaction in a Direct
borohydride fuel cell (DBFC), is complex and still poorly understood, which impedes the …

The development of highly active and inexpensive electrode materials is crucial to improve
the performance of fuel cells and to boost their commercialisation. In this work, a series of …
