Popis: A series of composite electrocatalysts composed of RuO2 nanosheets and carbon supported Pt (RuO(2)ns-Pt/C) has been synthesized by mixing different amounts of commercial 50 wt% Pt/C with RuO(2)ns derived from exfoliation of layered K0.2RuO2.1 center dot nH(2)O. The oxygen reduction activity and stability of the different electrocatalysts has been evaluated as a function of the nanosheet content in the composite electrocatalysts. An increase in initial activity was observed for composite electrocatalyst with RuO2/Pt
