High-efficiency and low-cost multifunctional electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction (HERs), oxygen evolution reaction (OERs) and oxygen reduction reaction (ORRs) are important for the practical applications of regenerative fuel cells. The activity trends of core–shell Ni6@M32 and Ni6@Pt1M31 (M = Pt, Pd, Cu, Ag, Au) were investigated using the density functional theory (DFT). Rate constant calculations indicated that Ni6@Pt1Ag31 was an efficient HER catalyst. The Volmer–Tafel process was the kinetically favorable reaction pathway for Ni6@Pt1M31. The Volmer–Heyrovsky reaction mechanism was preferred for Ni6@M32. The Pt active site reduced the energy barrier and changed the reaction mechanism. The ORR and OER overpotentials of Ni6@Pt1Ag31 were calculated to be 0.12 and 0.33 V, indicating that Ni6@Pt1Ag31 could be a promising multifunctional electrocatalyst. Ni6@Pt1M31 core–shell clusters present abundant active sites with a moderate adsorption strength for *H, *O, *OH and *OOH. The present study shows that embedding a single Pt atom onto a Ni@M core–shell cluster is a rational strategy for designing an effective multifunctional electrocatalyst. |
