Flexible Pt₂Pd alloy nanosheet electrocatalysts for efficient oxygen reduction reaction and zinc–air batteries

Abstract

A 2D Pt2Pd porous alloy nanosheet is synthesized through molten-alkali mechanochemical and borane morpholine complex reduction methods, which serves as an efficient catalyst for the oxygen reduction reaction.

Novel application of imidazole-based ligand-templated borates in a zinc–air battery

“…2 The oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is the key to determining the performance of the zinc-air battery. 3,4 In an electrochemical system, it is used to investigate the reaction of oxygen and electrode. Oxygen reduction is the reaction of oxygen at the positive electrode.…”
