	Modulation of the electronic d-band center, structural defects (line defects), and particle size of Pt3Co alloy electrocatalyst have huge significance in elevating its electrochemical oxygen reduction reaction activity. Deviating from traditional high-temperature strategies, the current work focuses on ripening these benefits by implying a simple economically viable hot-injection-assisted modified polyol process. A conclusive control over decrementing particle size starting from 2.7 to 1.3 nm, an increasing degree of strain (twin boundary), and shifting of the d-band center away from the Fermi level are obtained via varying the temperature to which the solution is injected. The catalyst prepared via the injection at 200 degrees C (Pt3Co(1.3 t,g-b)/fVC-200) has delivered an electrochemical surface area of 84 m(2) g(Pt)(-1) with the onset and half-wave potentials of 0.980 and 0.858 V, respectively, versus RHE and a limiting current of -6.0 mA cm(-2) with stability till 20k cycles. In the high-temperature proton exchange membrane fuel cell Pt3Co(1.3 t,g-b)/fVC-200-based cell has outperformed Pt/C rendering 600 mWcm(-2) under H-2-Air compared to 529 mWcm(-2) of Pt/C with 20% lower Pt loading and double the stability due to enhanced resistance toward phosphoric acid for accelerated voltage cycling. A similar enhancement is seen while employing the catalyst for low-temperature fuel cells.&lt;/p&gt;

	Cr1.5Co1.5O4 spinel nanoparticles supported over 3D spherical carbon (Cr1.5Co1.5O4/C-800) is synthesized as a bifunctional electrocatalyst for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) for rechargeable zinc air battery (RZAB) applications. The incorporation of Cr into the spinel lattice and the decoration of the active material on a 3D spherical carbon support with intrinsic ORR activity and superior electrical conductivity enable uniform distribution of catalytically active sites, thereby improving bifunctional catalytic activity. The DFT studies were conducted to understand the role of the Cr in modulating the catalytic sites of the active material and to elucidate its effect on tuning the Co sites to enhance the activity. Half-cell studies show that Cr incorporation and spherical carbon support synergistically enhanced catalytic activity, with the Cr1.5Co1.5O4/C-800 catalyst demonstrating an onset potential of 0.93 V (70 mV lower than Pt/C) and an E &amp;amp; half; value of 0.70 V for ORR and an overpotential of 0.369 V at 20 mA cm-2 (eta 20) for OER (0.375 V for the RuO2 catalyst). The catalyst's bifunctional activity was validated in an RZAB, where it outperformed the Pt/C-RuO2 benchmark, delivering superior rate capability and stability and achieving a cycling life exceeding 145 h.&lt;/p&gt;
