▎ 摘  要

Low frequency ultrasound (20?kHz) was used for the reduction of graphene oxide (GO), Pt and Sn precursors with simultaneous loading of Pt and Sn monometallic and PtSn bimetallic nanoparticles on the surface of reduced GO (rGO). The physicochemical characterizations of the catalysts were carried out using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), and selected area electron diffraction (SAED) techniques. The reduced monometallic and bimetallic nanoparticles were spherical in shape with diameters around 26?nm, uniformly embedded on rGO sheets of few layers thickness. The electrocatalytic activities of the synthesized materials were evaluated by cyclic voltammetric studies.
