title: Continuous Production of Carbon-Supported Cubic and Octahedral Platinum-Based Catalysts Using Conveyor Transport System.
abstract: A conveyor transport system is developed for the continuous production of carbon-supported uniform Pt nanocubes, and Pt3Ni nanocubes and octahedra in a single-reaction system under hot carbon monoxide environment. Oleylamine is critical for the high loading and even the dispersion of Pt nanocubes on a carbon support. The metal catalyst shows high performance in electrocatalytic oxidation of methanol.
