Abstract:Control of CO emissions raises serious environmental concerns in the current chemical industry, as well as in nascent technologies based on hydrogen such as electrolyzers and fuel cells. Pt remains one of the state‐of‐art catalysts for the CO oxidation reaction, but suffers from CO self–poisoning. Recently, PtGe alloys were proposed as an excellent alternative to reduce CO poisoning. In this work we investigate the impact of Ge content on the CO oxidation kinetics of P4Gen subnanoclusters supported on MgO. Pt−… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
