1D alloy ultrafine Pt–Fe nanowires as efficient electrocatalysts for alcohol electrooxidation in alkaline media

Ultrafine Pt–Fe Nanowires (NWs): Owing to anisotropy, high surface area and excellent conductivity of the ultrafine Pt–Fe NWs, they are more beneficial for the improvement of catalytic activity and stability enhancement compared with commercial Pt/C, thus opening a new way to promote fuel cell reactions.
