Abstract
Abstract Modulating the oxophilic properties of inorganic nanomaterials has become a powerful approach to achieve high catalytic performance of electrocatalytic reaction in fuel cells. This review introduces the recent progress on the methods of engineering the oxophilic properties of nanomaterials and their corresponding applications in electrocatalysis. Key engineering methods are summarized, including decorating oxophilic atoms and nanoclusters on host metal based nanocatalysts, engineering the oxophilic composition of nanocatalyst surfaces, and utilizing oxophilic materials as support for nanocatalysts. The critical role of the oxophilic properties of these nanocatalysts in CO electrooxidation, alcohol electrooxidation, and formic acid electrooxidation reactions are highlighted. Perspectives on engineering the oxophilic properties of nanomaterials and their influence on electrocatalysis are presented.
