摘　　要：由于阴极催化剂有限的活性和耐久性以及甲醇渗透到阴极所导致的催化剂中毒问题,直接甲醇燃料电池(DMFCs)仍面临严峻的挑战。本文报道了一类新型的具有有序金属间结构的Rh掺杂PdCu纳米颗粒用于提高阴极氧还原反应(ORR)的活性、耐久性和甲醇耐受性。通过结合Rh原子掺杂以及有序金属间结构两者的优点,在碱性条件下,Rh掺杂Pd Cu金属间化合物催化剂在0.9 V电位下对氧还原质量活性相比商业Pt/C提高7.4倍。这种独特的结构还使其表现出出色的ORR耐久性,在连续20000个循环后的半波电位和质量活性几乎不变。此外,在苛刻的中毒环境下,仍可以保持Rh掺杂PdCu金属间化合物电催化剂高的氧还原催化活性。Direct methanol fuel cells(DMFCs), as one of the important energy conversion devices, are of great interest in the fields of energy, catalysis and materials. However, the application of DMFCs is presently challenged because of the limited activity and durability of cathode catalysts as well as the poisoning issues caused by methanol permeation to the cathode during operation. Herein, we report a new class of Rh-doped PdC u nanoparticles(NPs) with ordered intermetallic structure for enhancing the activity and durability of the cathode for oxygen reduction reaction(ORR) and achieving superior methanol tolerance. The disordered Rh-doped PdC u NPs can be prepared via a simple wet-chemical method, followed by annealing to convert it to ordered phases. The results of transmission electronmicroscopy(TEM), scanning electron microscopy-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(SEM-EDS), power X-ray diffraction(PXRD) analysis and high resolution TEM(HRTEM) successfully demonstrate the formation of near-spherical NPs with an average size of 6.5 ± 0.5 nm and the conversion of the phase structure. The complete phase transition temperatures of Rh-doped PdCu NPs and PdCu are 500 and 400 °C, respectively. The molar ratio of Rh/Pd/Cu in the assynthesized Rh-doped PdCu NPs is 5/48/47. Benefitting from Rh doping and the presence of the ordered intermetallic structure, the Rh-doped PdCu intermetallic electrocatalyst achieves the maximum ORR mass activity of 0.96 A·mg-1 at 0.9 V versus reversible hydrogen electrode(RHE) under alkaline conditions—a 7.4-fold enhancement compared to the commercial Pt/C catalyst. For different electrocatalysts, the ORR activities follow the sequence, ordered Rh-doped PdCu intermetallics > ordered PdCu intermetallics > disordered Rh-doped PdCu NPs > disordered PdCu NPs > commercial Pt/C catalyst. In addition, the distinct structure endows the Rh-doped PdCu intermetallics with highly stable ORR durability with unaltered half-wave potential(E1/2) and mass activity after continuous 20000 cycles, which are hi
