Construction of H‐Doped PdB Nanocrystals as Electrocatalysts to Modulate Formic Acid Oxidation
AbstractThe strong ligand effect in B‐doped Pd‐based (PdB) catalysts renders them a promising anode for constructing formic acid fuel cells (FAFCs) exhibiting high power density and outstanding stability. However, the enhancement of the oxidation barrier is unavoidable in this alloy system owing to the electron transfer (ET) from B to Pd. In this study, a hydrogen doping strategy is employed to open charge freedom in PdB compounds and boost their formic acid oxidation reaction (FAOR) activity by suppressing the ET process. The resulting hydrogen‐doped PdB (PdBH) exhibits an ultrahigh mass activity of up to 1.2A mg−1Pd, which is 3.23 times that of the PdB catalyst and 9.55 times that of Pd black. Detailed experimental and theoretical studies show that the interstitial hydrogen leads to enhanced orbital hybridization and reduced electron density around Pd. This optimized ligand effect weakens the carbon monoxide adsorption and increases the direct pathway preference of PdBH, resulting in its outstanding catalytic activity for the FAOR. The development of this high‐performance hydrogen‐doped PdB catalyst is an important step toward the construction of advanced light element co‐doped metal catalysts.
