“…As examples, N‐doped graphene, [8] carbon nanotubes, [9] carbide‐derived carbons, [10] and different nanocarbon composites [11] have been studied for ORR activity, and show high electrocatalytic activity towards O 2 reduction. Recently, conducting polymer (CP)‐derived NPMC materials have gained attention due to their high catalytic activity, long‐term stability, low‐cost and simple preparation routes [12,13] . An additional benefit of using CP for catalyst preparation is the presence of N in the polymer structure (e. g. polyaniline, polypyrrole (PPy), polyacrylonitrile (PAN)), which excludes the necessity to use additional N precursor [14–16] .…”
