Abstract
under the experimental conditions. The as-prepared PtFeCu/C exhibited excellent performance, 1.94 times higher than Pt/C for methanol oxidation. More importantly, the yield of the PtFeCu/C nanocatalysts could be further increased through designing numerous parallel channels, which might provide a promising approach for large-scale commercialization of the catalysts. Such a high-throughput fabrication pathway is significant for the large-scale industrial production of nanomaterials.
