AI Article Synopsis
- Researchers successfully created Pt triambic icosahedral nanocrystals (TIH NCs) using an electrochemical method in deep eutectic solvents.
- These nanocrystals featured {771} high-index facets, which contributed to their unique properties.
- The TIH NCs demonstrated superior electrocatalytic activity and stability for ethanol electrooxidation compared to a commercial Pt black catalyst.
Article Abstract
Pt triambic icosahedral nanocrystals (TIH NCs) enclosed by {771} high-index facets were successfully synthesized electrochemically, for the first time, in ChCl-urea based deep eutectic solvents, and exhibited higher electrocatalytic activity and stability towards ethanol electrooxidation than a commercial Pt black catalyst.
