Oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is a key step that determines the performance of a variety of energy storage and conversion devices, such as fuel cells and metal–air batteries. Heteroatom‐doped carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphenes have attracted increasing interest and hold great promise as efficient ORR catalysts to replace noble‐metal‐based catalysts, owing to their unique structure characteristics, excellent physicochemical properties, low cost, and rich resources. In this review, recent progress on the design, fabrication, and performance of heteroatom‐doped CNT‐ and graphene‐based catalysts is summarized, aiming to provide insights into the working mechanism of these heteroatom‐doped nanocarbons in ORR. The advantages, challenges that remain, and possible solutions of these nanocarbon‐based electrocatalysts are discussed. Finally, future developing trends of the CNT‐ and graphene‐based ORR catalysts are proposed.

Ac ompositeo fF eOOHn anocubes anchored on carbon ribbonsh as been synthesized and used as ac athode material forL i/O 2 batteries. Fe 2 + ion-exchanged resin serves as ap recursor for both FeOOHn anocubes and carbon ribbons, which are formed simultaneously.T he as-prepared FeOOH cubes are proposed to have ac ore-shell structure, with FeOOH as the shell and Prussian blue as the core, based on information from XPS, TEM, and EDS mapping. As ac athode materialf or Li/O 2 batteries, FeOOHd elivers as pecific capacity of 14816 mA hg À1 cathode with ac yclings tability of 67 cycles over 400 h. The high performance is relatedt o the low overpotentialo ft he oxygen reduction/evolution reactiono nF eOOH. The cube structure,t he supporting carbon ribbons,a nd the -OOH moieties all contribute to the low overpotential. The discharge productL i 2 O 2 can be efficiently decomposed in the FeOOHc athode after ac harging process, leading to higherc ycling stability.I ts high activity and stabilitymake FeOOH ag ood candidate for use in non-aqueous Li/O 2 batteries.

“…This could be induced by using low temperatures or short times. Nevertheless, the amorphous catalysts could show higher electrocatalytic activity toward the ORR than the crystalline catalysts, due mainly to high surface area in the amorphous structure, as previous studies have suggested 28. 29 Thus, it is considered that the texture properties may play an important role in the ORR performance improvement.…”

In this study, carbon‐black‐supported Cu‐doped Mn–Co spinel‐type oxides (MnxCu1−xCo2O4/C, x=0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 1) were synthesized by using a hydrothermal method. Firstly, the morphology characterization shows that the as‐prepared MnxCu1−xCo2O4 nanoparticles with the crystalline spinel structure are uniformly dispersed on the carbon black and the MnxCu1−xCo2O4/C samples possess high specific surface area. The neutral oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) performance of MnxCu1−xCo2O4/C evaluated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) shows that all catalysts can catalyze the ORR. Mn0.6Cu0.4Co2O4/C exhibited the highest catalytic activity, which might be due to its highest surface area. Finally, the MnxCu1−xCo2O4/C samples were used for microbial fuel cells (MFCs) as cathodic catalysts. The polarization curves demonstrate that Mn0.6Cu0.4Co2O4/C owns the best power output, close to 20 wt % Pt/C. This study suggests that using Mn0.6Cu0.4Co2O4/C instead of Pt/C could potentially improve the feasibility of scaling up MFCs for real applications by lowering the production cost.
