The promising Pt-based ternary catalyst is crucial for polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEM-FCs) due to improving catalytic activity and durability for both methanol oxidation reaction and oxygenreduction reaction. In this work, a facile strategy is used for the synthesis ternary RuMPt (M = Fe, Co, Ni,and Cu) nanodendrities catalysts. The ternary RuMPt alloys exhibit enhanced specific and mass activ-ity, positive half-wave potential, and long-term stability, compared with binary Pt-based alloy and thecommercial Pt/C catalyst, which is attributed to the high electron density and upshifting of the d-bandcenter for Pt atoms, and synergistic catalytic effects among Pt, M, and Ru atoms by introducing a tran-sition metal. Impressively, the ternary RuCoPt catalyst exhibits superior mass activity (801.59 mA mg−1)and positive half-wave potential (0.857 V vs. RHE) towards MOR and ORR, respectively. Thus, the RuMPtnanocomposite is a very promising material to be used as dual electrocatalyst in the application of PEMFCs
