Abstract

Bimetallic PtRu decorated over nitrogen-containing CNTs was synthesised by an impregnation–reduction method to achieve a remarkable activity towards methanol oxidation, which is supported by DFT studies. The local electrocatalytic activity during methanol oxidation was determined by means of scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) measurements.
