ABSTRACT
The Ru-based catalyst for hydrogen oxidation reaction (HOR) with remarkable activity and reliability at high potential range remains a formidable challenge. Herein, the RuNi/C nanoparticles are customized, in which NiRu alloy is tightly wrapped with a carbon layer, delivering 2.2-fold and 8.3-fold enhancement in kinetic current density than that of commercial Pt/C and Ru/C, respectively. Notably, the current density maintains 2.93 mA cm-2 disk at 0.6 V vs RHE, which effectively improves the stability of Ru-based catalysts at high voltage. The NiRu alloy triggers electron redistribution between two metal elements and regulates the surface adsorption performance, coupled with a tightly wrapped outer carbon layer which is in situ formed with alloy as a good conductor of electronic and protection from the electrolyte. This work not only provides a novel electrocatalyst for efficient HOR with its potential for industrial application but also opens up a new avenue for designing highly active catalytic systems.
