【摘要】Highly dispersed tungsten carbide (WC) nanoparticles (NPs) sandwiched between few‐layer re‐duced graphene oxide (RGO) have been successfully synthesized by using thiourea as an anchoring and inducing reagent. The metatungstate ion, [H2W12O40]6?, is assembled on thiourea‐modified gra‐phene oxide (GO) by an impregnation method. The WC NPs, with a mean diameter of 1.5 nm, are obtained through a process whereby ammonium metatungstate first turns to WS2, which then forms an intercalation compound with RGO before growing, in situ, to WC NPs. The Pt/WC‐RGO electro‐catalysts are fabricated by a microwave‐assisted method. The intimate contacts between Pt, WC, and RGO are confirmed by X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscope, and Raman spectroscopy. For methanol oxidation, the Pt/WC‐RGO electrocatalyst ex‐hibited an electrochemical surface area value of 246.1 m2/g Pt and a peak current density of 1364.7 mA/mg Pt, which are, respectively, 3.66 and 4.77 times greater than those of commercial Pt/C electrocatalyst (67.2 m2/g Pt, 286.0 mA/mg Pt). The excellent CO‐poisoning resistance
