摘要
The aim of non-precious metal catalysts (NPMCs) is to replace expensive Pt-based catalysts for fuel cells. NPMCs require not only high oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) catalytic activity but also cheap ingredients, and the facile synthetic method of the catalyst is amendable to mass production. We describe a potential catalyst for catalyzing the cathodic ORR, which is synthesized by a facile method: uses porous carbon-supported melamine formaldehyde resin as a precursor to a carbon nitrogen template for high-temperature synthesis of catalysts incorporating iron. In the synthesis process of porous carbon supported melamine-formaldehyde resin, the uses of surfactant (Tween 80), making the activity of catalysts have been improved significantly. As a result, the catalyst demonstrates remarkable ORR activity in both acid and alkaline electrolytes, thus making it a promising alternative as an ORR catalyst for application in fuel cells.
