A concurrently optimization of H and OH binding energies in atomically Ni anchored Ru/RuO₂ nanosheet driving high CO-tolerant hydrogen oxidation catalysis.

ABSTRACT: The development of highly active and CO-tolerant hydrogen oxidation reaction (HOR) electrocatalysts is of great significance for alkaline exchange membrane fuel cells (AEMFCs). Here, the designed atomically Ni anchored Ru/RuO₂ heterostructure nanosheets (Ni_SA-Ru@RuO₂ NSs/C) exhibit enhanced activity and stability for HOR in alkaline media. The optimized electrocatalyst delivers a high CO-tolerant durability with 92.3% retention in the 1000 ppm CO concentration after 5000 s test. Moreover, the anode catalyst Ni_SA-Ru@RuO₂ NSs/C assembled AEMFCs output a peak power density (PPD) and specific PPD of 1.76 W cm^-2 and 17.6 W mg_PGM^-1 under the H₂/O₂ condition and performed a long-term stab
