Investigation of multiple commercial electrocatalysts and electrocatalyst degradation for fuel cells in real vehicles

RSC Advances, 2022
The coalescence of Pt nanoparticles during operation in a real vehicle is considered to be the main reason to weaken the ORR. The trajectories of oriented attachment were disclosed by observing the coalescence events of Pt NPs using in situ TEM.
