The C3 selectivity of carbon-supported Au nanoparticles for glycerol electro-oxidation was significantly enhanced by the interaction of Au with electro-deposited Cu species. Notably, the C3 selectivity of supported Au nanoparticles doubled after 90 min of Cu electro-deposition at +0.015 V. This resu...
