Abstract

Palladium nanoparticles (Pd NPs) supported on Ni single atoms encapsulated in carbon nanotubes (NiSA) show a significantly enhanced electrocatalytic activity for the oxidation reactions of methanol, ethanol and glycerol in alkaline media due to an unusual electron withdrawal effect of NiSA on Pd NPs.
