▎ 摘　　要

Herein, we develop a simple one-pot aqueous method to prepare AuPd alloy nanocrystals on reduced graphene oxide (AuPd NCs/rGO), by using 1-acetyl-4-(p-hydroxyphenyl) piperazine (AHPP) as the reductant, stabilizing agent and structure-director, without any other additives (e.g., seed, surfactant or polymer). The product is mainly characterized by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and thermogravimetric analysis. The obtained AuPd NCs/rGO displays enlarged electrochemically active surface area and superior catalytic performances toward oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) relative to Pt/C, Pd/C, Pd/rGO and Au/rGO catalysts, showing promising applications in energy storage and conversion.
