Single Atomic Iron Catalysts for Oxygen Reduction in Acidic Media: Particle Size Control and Thermal Activation

Abstract: It remains a grand challenge to replace platinum group metal (PGM) catalysts with earth-abundant materials for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in acidic media, which is crucial for large-scale deployment of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). Here, we report a high-performance atomic Fe catalyst derived from chemically Fe-doped zeolitic imidazolate frameworks (ZIFs) by directly bonding Fe ions to imidazolate ligands within 3D frameworks. Although the ZIF was identified as a promising precursor, t… Show more

“…In this context, the development of efficient non-noble catalysts for ORR has been the focus of many researchers aroundt he world. [4] Of those strategies been reported, [5] using metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) has been proved as an effectivem ean to immobilize highly dispersing MN x active sites in resulting carbonized materials because of their highly ordered structure and uniformly distributed metal struts. [3] It has been revealed that highly dispersing MN x sites embedded in carbon matrix could render the resulting catalystw ith high catalytic activity that rival conventionalP t-based catalysts.…”

“…[11,12,19,72] Die Elektronenpolarisierung an der Dotierungsstelle kçnnte die Elektronenaffinitäts owohl der dotierenden Metallatome als auch der ursprünglichen Nichtmetallatome abstimmen und hierdurch die Reaktionskinetik des Ladungstransfers in Nachbarschaft zur Dotierungsstelle verbessern. [74][75][76] Daher kann man durch Dotierung mit Metallatomen wegen deren unvollständiger Koordination nicht nur die Anzahl der aktiven Zentren erhçhen, sondern auch die benachbarten Nichtmetallatome durch Elektronenpolarisierung aktivieren. [66,73] Währenddessen haben die üblicherweise eingesetzten, Kohlenstoff-basierten Nichtmetall-Trägermaterialien typischerweise große Oberflächen und hervorragende Leitfähigkeiten.…”
