The storage and conversion of energy necessitates the use of appropriate electrochemical systems and chemical reaction catalysts. This work presents newly developed catalysts for electrooxidation of ethanol in an alkaline medium. Nanocatalysts composed of Co–Ni nanowires (Co–Ni NWs) decorated with Pd nanoparticles (Pd NPs) were made at varying metal ratios and their chemical composition and structure was investigated in detail. The synthesis involved a wet chemical reduction assisted by a magnetic field, which led to the generation of NWs, followed by the deposition of spherical Pd NPs on their surface. The best catalytic activity was obtained for the catalyst made of Co3–Ni7 decorated with Pd NPs, which exhibited EOR of 8003 mA/mgPd for only 0.86 wt% of Pd loading. The results can be explained by the synergistic effect between the morphology of the bimetallic support and the favorable interaction of oxophilic Co, Ni with catalytic Pd. |
