▎ 摘　　要

In our previous research, titanium-based nitride with high conductivity and superior corrosion resistance were developed as an ideal core material for replacing noble metal to form Pt-based core-shell catalysts by pulse electrodeposition. Meanwhile, the smaller sizes of nitride cores would also be available for pulse electrodeposition by dispersing them on carbon nanotubes (CNT). To achieve a better practice on the preparation of the Pt-based core-shell catalysts, in this work, both nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes (N-CNT) and reduced graphene oxide (N-rGO) were used to support the copper-doped titanium nitride (Ti0.9Cu0.1N) cores. In the course of pulse electrodeposition, their influences as supports on the electronic states of electrodeposited Pt as well as their catalytic activities were compared. The results showed that the Pt preferred to electrodeposit on Ti0.9Cu0.1N cores supported by N-CNT and formed a core-shell structure. While with the same electrode position process, the Pt was found to be electrodeposited not only on the Ti0.9Cu0.1N cores supported by N-rGO with heavy aggregations but also on the N-rGO support. Raman spectroscopy analysis indicated that the higher degree of structural defects on N-rGO, as support, might have contributed to such divergence observation.
