Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en" id="smll201400059-abs-0001"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p> <bold>The high‐yield synthesis of dendritic Au/Pt and Au/PtCu nanowires</bold> is achieved through an effective heterogeneous, epitaxial growth strategy conducted in the water‐phase to grow dendritic Pt and PtCu nanoshells on Au nanowires. The synthesized products exhibit excellent electrocatalytic activity towards methanol electrooxidation. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgh122s970h" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
