Abstract
Well-defined Pd and Pt encapsulated Pd (Pt@Pd) nanocubes (NCs) are examined as catalysts for the electro-oxidation of glycerol in alkaline solutions. Pt@Pd shows the highest current density of 3.22 mA cm−2, which is 3.5, 4.8 and 1.5 times those of Pd/C, Pt/C and Pd NCs. Pd NCs possess the largest glyceraldehyde selectivity of 61.2% while Pt@Pd facilitates the yield of glycolic acid.
