Abstract:The main impediment to the development of zinc− air batteries is the sluggish kinetics of the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Transition metal N-doped carbon catalysts offer a promising alternative to noble metal catalysts, with metal−organic framework (MOF)-derived carbon material catalysts being particularly noteworthy. Here, we synthesized M x P-Z-C carbon catalysts by combining two-dimensional (2D) metal porphyrin-based MOFs (M x PMFs, x = Fe, Co, Ni, Mn) and three-… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
