The oxygen reduction activity and stability of the different electrocatalysts has been evaluated as a function of the nanosheet content in the composite electrocatalysts. An increase in initial activity was observed for composite electrocatalyst with RuO2/Pt<0.4. After conducting accelerated durability tests, the RuO(2)ns-Pt/C composite electrocatalyst with RuO2/Pt = 0.3 exhibited a 25% higher mass activity toward oxygen reduction than the pristine Pt/C electrocatalyst., Article, JOURNAL OF THE ELECTROCHEMICAL SOCIETY. 161(3):F318-F322 (2014)}, pages = {F318--F322}, title = {Influence of the RuO2 Nanosheet Content in RuO2 Nanosheet-Pt/C Composite Toward Improved Performance of Oxygen Reduction Electrocatalysts}, volume = {161}, year = {2014} }
