Platinum-selenium and platinum hollow nanospheres (denoted as (Pt-Se)_HN and Pt_HN, respectively) with different coverages of Se (θ_Se) (θ_Se=0.49, 0.39, 0.06, 0) were prepared using amorphous Se colloids as a sacrificial template. Sulfite was used to completely remove Se from the core-shell nanoparticles. The morphology and structure of the nanoparticles were characterized using various methods, which revealed a hollow structure with a very uniform size distribution and a porous structure on the shell. Assembly of Pt-Se hollownanospheres ((Pt-Se)_HN) on a glassy carbon (GC) electrode produced a (Pt-Se)_HN/GC electrode. The electrocatalytic activity of the electrode for the oxidation of formic acid was compared with the Pt_HN/GCand commercial Pt/C/GCelectrodes by cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry. The activity followed the order: (Pt-Se)_HN/GC > Pt_HN/GC >Pt/C/GC. The electrooxidation of formic acid on (Pt-Se)_HN/C, Pt_HN/C, and Pt/C catalysts follows different mechanisms: the former tends to directly oxidize formic acid to CO₂ via weakly adsorbed intermediates, and the latter two via both weakly and strongly adsorbed intermediates. (Pt-Se)_HN with a suitable seleniumcontent showed optimal electrocatalytic activity for the oxidation of formic acid.
