3D Pt nanoflowers , which are composed of numerous single‐crystal nanowires, are successfully synthesized by a facile chemical procedure, at room temperature, without surfactant or template. The Pt nanoflowers adhere to carbon paper, exhibiting an enlarged electroactive surface area comparable to that of a commercial Pt/C electrode.
