Three‐Dimensional Hierarchical Porous Fe, N‐Doped Hollow Carbon Nanospheres as Stable Electrocatalyst for Efficient Oxygen Reduction Reaction in Both Acidic and Alkaline Electrolytes
Abstract:3D hierarchical porous Fe, N‐doped hollow carbon nano‐spheres (Fe−N−C HPNCs) as efficient ORR electrocatalyst were obtained using melamine‐formaldehyde resin (MF) nanospheres as thermal sacrificial hard template to optimize the pore structure and provide nitrogen source to the catalyst. The optimized Fe−N−C HPNCs catalyst exhibited excellent catalytic activity with onset (Eonset) and half‐wave (E1/2) potential (Eonset=1.07 V; E1/2=0.90 V vs. RHE) superior to commercial Pt/C catalyst in 0.1 M KOH solution, and … 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.
