Abstract
Pt cubes immobilized on carbon supports were synthesized by a one pot process in the presence of anchoring agents. The anchoring agents provide nucleating sites on the support, and also act as shape-controlling agents. In situ shaped cubic Pt/C showed superior activity and long-term stability for oxygen reduction reaction without an organic removal process.Keywords
