Carbon supported Au–Pt catalysts with different bimetallic compositions were prepared by water-in-oil (w/o) micro-emulsions. Carbon Vulcan XC-72R was added during the synthesis of particles in order to obtain good dispersion. Structural characterization was performed using XRD (X-ray diffraction) at wide angles, WAXS (wide-angle X-ray scattering) which showed that Pt–Au particles exhibited alloy properties in samples with high gold-content, and a segregation effect for those with low gold-content. Electrochemical characterization allowed estimation of the surface composition of Pt–Au alloys. These experiments have been confirmed by XRD data. Moreover, HRTEM (high resolution transmission electron microscopy) and XEDS (X-ray energy dispersive spectroscopy) characterization further confirmed the electrochemical results and XRD data. CO stripping experiments have shown an increasing bonding energy between CO and platinum with the gold content in the nanoalloys.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
