Colloidal synthesis method such as oleylamine(OAm)-stabilized process is of great interest for obtain-ing uniform and highly dispersed platinum nanoparticle catalysts,yet the ligand may unavoidably in-hibit their electro-catalytic performance.Thus,fully removing these ligands is critical to activate catalyst surface.Previous research of OAm removal process pointed that thermal annealing was the most effec-tive way in comparison with other methods such as chemical washing,UV-Ozone irradiation and cyclic voltammetry sweeping,but generally resulting in undesired growth of platinum nanoparticle.Few studies concerning a more efficient ligand removal process have been published yet.In this work we proposed a platinum in-situ catalytic OAm combustion strategy to elucidate the removal mechanism of OAm ligands in thermal process and the key experimental parameters were also optimized.In addition,heat flow sig-nal based on differential scanning calorimetry(DSC)measurement as a sensitive indicator,is suggested to reveal the ligand removal efficiency,which is much more reliable than the traditional spectroscopy.In comparison with commercial Pt/C sample,such a surface clean Pt/C electrocatalyst has shown an en-hanced specific activity for oxygen reduction reaction.Our removal strategy and the evaluation method are highly instructive to efficient removal of different organic ligands.
