“…The creation of the core/shell nanostructures containing bi-metal oxides greatly enhanced the catalytic efficiency of these structures over pure single metal oxide particles [178]. Mahendiran et al [146] synthesized carbon coated NiO/MgO in a core/shell nanostructure. The results indicated that the Pd-NiO/MgO@C catalyst has excellent electrocatalytic activity and stability.…”

This review selectively summarizes the latest developments in the Pd-based cataysts for low temperature proton exchange membrane fuel cells, especially in the application of formic acid oxidation, alcohol oxidation and oxygen reduction reaction. The advantages and shortcomings of the Pd-based catalysts for electrocatalysis are analyzed. The influence of the structure and morphology of the Pd materials on the performance of the Pd-based catalysts were described. Finally, the perspectives of future trends on Pd-based catalysts for different applications were considered.

“…Therefore, a catalytic system with high surface area and cheap supporting structure should potentially able to optimize the efficiency of these electrocatalysts without sacrificing their performance. The core/shell nanostructures forming layers of Pt onto cheap materials have emerged as an effective way of increasing electrocatalytic activity [17,26,[41][42][43][44]. One-dimensional (1D) nanostructures, particularly carbon nanotubes (CNT), have been widely used as a supporting material for Pt nanoparticles (NPs) due to their high electrochemical surface area (ECSA) and unique physical properties [45,46].…”

In order to move away from the carbon-based energy technologies, electrochemical energy production and storage is under serious consideration as an alternative energy/power source. The future success of this global effort is under review, and researchers are looking forward to designing more sustainable and environmentally friendly electrochemical energy storage and conversion (EESC) systems. Electrochemical energy storage and conversion systems in the broadest sense have three variants: batteries, fuel cells, and electrochemical capacitors, also known as supercapacitors. The energy storage and conversion mechanisms in these three systems are different, but the energy -providing processes in these systems -all follow solid state and surface interface chemistry, taking place in active electrode materials and at the phase boundary of the electrode/electrolyte interface. Also, all three systems consist of two electrodes which are in contact with the electrolyte but separated by a membrane. Conventional materials used in these systems cannot meet the ever-increasing demand for energy. Thereby, designing efficient and miniaturized EESC devices that achieve high energy storage or delivery at high charge and discharge rates and with lifetimes capable of matching the specific requirements of applications is one of the major challenges facing today's research community.Thereby, this chapter will review some of the recent developments (2010)(2011)(2012)

“…If the DAFCs can be achieved in an alkaline medium instead of an acidic media, the kinetics of the fuel cell will be significantly improved [10,11] . According to the research report, Pd is a good electrocatalyst for ethanol oxidation and shows higher activity than that of Pt in alkaline medium [8,9] .…”
