Abstract

Bimetallic PtPb nanodendrites with a single-crystalline structure were obtained by a facile one-pot strategy. The as-synthesized dendritic structure was well characterized and the growth mechanism was investigated. PtPb nanodendrites exhibited superior activity (5.1 times higher than commercial Pd black) and strong anti-poisoning ability for electrooxidation of formic acid.
