A simple ,rapid and energy-saving method has been used to synthesize nanostructured tungsten carbide on graphitized carbon(WC/gC) materials. The procedures include the ion exchange of the ion-exchange resin as original precursor with targeting ions and heat treatment by an intermittent microwave heating (IMH) method. The resulting product was loaded by Pt nanoparticles to form auniformly dispersed nanocomposite (Pt-WC/gC). The samples are characterized by physical and electrochemical methods. The Pt-WC/gC as electrocatalyst for oxygen reduction reaction show shigh activity proved by the Pt-mass activity of 207.4mAmgÀ1Pt which is much higher than that of 107.4mAmgÀ1PtonPt/Cat0.9V. The onset potential for methanol oxidation is 100mV more negative than that on Pt/Celectrocatalyst. The synthes is of other types of nanomaterials based on this method is current under way to demonstrate the general suitability.
