A new methanol-tolerant oxygen reduction electrocatalyst, nitrogen-doped hollow carbon microspheres@platinum nanoparticles hybrids (HNCMS@Pt NPs), has been synthesized by a facile template route. In brief, Pt NPs were loaded on the surface of NH₂-functionalized SiO₂ microspheres (Pt NPs/SiO₂). Then, the Pt NPs/SiO₂ hybrids were wrapped by polydopamine (PDA) film. After direct carbonization of PDA-wrapped Pt NPs/SiO₂ hybrids under a nitrogen atmosphere and further treatment in a hydrofluoric acid solution, Pt NPs embedded within nitrogen-doped hollow carbon microsphere (HNCMS) were obtained and labeled as HNCMS@Pt NPs. Scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, specific surface area analysis, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy were used to characterize the HNCMS@Pt NPs hybrids. The electrochemical properties of the HNCMS@Pt NPs hybrids for oxygen reduction reaction have also been investigated by cyclic voltammetry and linear sweep voltammetry. The results show that the Pt loading mass in the HNCMS@Pt NPs hybrids is up to 11.9% (w, mass fraction). Furthermore, the as-prepared HNCMS@Pt NPs catalyst exhibits good electrocatalytic activity, high stability, and excellent methanol-tolerance toward oxygen reduction reactions, implying potential applications in practical direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs) as methanol-tolerant cathodic catalysts.
