Abstract

Nanosized Pt catalysts are the catalyst-of-choice for proton exchange membrane fuel cell(PEMFC)anode,but are limited by their extreme sensitivity to CO in parts per million(ppm)level,thereby making the use of ultrapure H2 a prerequisite to ensure acceptable performance.Herein,we confront the CO poisoning issue by bringing the Ir/Rh single atom sites to synergistically working with their metallic counterparts.In presence of 1000 ppm CO,the catalyst represents not only undisturbed H2 oxidation reaction(HOR)catalytic behavior in electrochemical cell,but also unparalleled peak power density at 643 mW cm-2 in single cell,27-fold in mass activity of the best PtRu/C catalysts available.Pre-poisoning experiments and surface-enhanced Raman scattering spectroscopy(SERS)and calculation results in combine suggest the presence of adjacent Ir/Rh single atom sites(SASs)to the nanoparticles(NPs)as the origin for this prominent catalytic behavior.The single sites not only exhibit superb CO oxidation performance by themselves,but can also scavenge the CO adsorbed on approximated NPs via supplying reactive OH*spe-cies.We open up a new route here to conquer the formidable CO poisoning issue through single atom and nanoparticle synergistic catalysis,and pave the way towards a more robust PEMFC future.
