There are several advantages to using Pt@Pd catalysts:
Enhanced Activity: The combination of platinum and palladium results in higher catalytic activity compared to monometallic catalysts. Improved Stability: The palladium shell protects the platinum core from sintering and poisoning, extending the catalyst's lifespan. Cost Efficiency: By using a thin palladium shell over a platinum core, the overall amount of platinum needed is reduced, lowering costs without sacrificing performance.
