Abstract With the accelerating energy transition, proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) have emerged as a research focus in sustainable energy technologies due to their high energy density and zero-emission properties. Platinum-based alloy catalysts, serving as the core materials for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) at the cathodes of PEMFCs, still face critical challenges including high cost, support corrosion, weak poisoning resistance, and metal dissolution, which hinder their large-scale commercialization. In recent years, researchers have made significant strides in enhancing catalyst performance through morphology engineering, support optimization, and alloy composition design. The present review systematically examines recent advancements in Pt-based alloy catalysts for PEMFCs, with a focus on morphology design, support interface effects, and anti-deactivation mechanisms. Through comprehensive discussion the paper provides fundamental insights to guide the development of cost-effective, high-performance PEMFC catalysts with extended operational lifetimes.
