11 Pt/C or Pd/C Hybrids in Electrocatalysis High dispersion of Pt on porous carbon gives rise topromising electrocatalytic activity for O 2 reduction, which could prove to be relevant for fuel-cell technologies. 1-D carbon nanofiber loaded with Pt nanoparticles had high electrocatalytic methanol oxidation reaction due to its high mass transport and electron transport. S. H. Joo, Nature 2001, 412, 169 G. Zhao, J. Phys. Chem. C 2008, 112, 1028 The Pt nanocube/carbon catalyst with dominant {100} faces showed lower onset potential and higher current density for methanol electrooxidation than the polycrystalline Pt nanocatalyst. Graphene nanosheets were expected as a new carbon support material modi-fying catalytic properties of Pt fuel cell catalysts. S. B. Han, Electrochem. Commun. 2008, 10,

12 For methanol electrooxidation, the polygonal Pd/C shows improved current-density and less accumulation of residues. The polygonal Pd/C exhibits an excellent stability in comparison with commercial Pd/C. Pd/MWCNT (> Pd/C > Pd/ACF) electrocatalyst showed the highest activity for ethanol oxidation in alkaline media. The results indicated that the support would significantly influence the catalytic activities. Y. W. Lee, Electrochem. Commun. 2009, 11, 1968 H.T. Zheng, J. Power Sources 2006, 163, 371 The Pd/coin-like hollow carbon (CHC) electrocatalyst gave a enhanced performance for MeOH oxidation because the micrometer sized CHCs significantly reduced the liquid sealing effect. The activities of alcohol oxidation on Pd on carbonized pulverized PAA electro-catalyst are higher than that on Pd/C. Electrodes prepared by Pd/CPAA showed a porous structure, resulting in a high active surface area. D. Yuan, Electrochem. Commun. 2007, 9, 2473 Z. Wang, Electrochem. Commun. 2006, 8,
