摘要
A rational and effective strategy for the synthesis of a high-performance non-precious metal electrocatalyst for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) was developed by inducing reconstruction of Fe-N-x site on pig-bone-derived nitrogen-doped hierarchically porous carbon. The resultant Fe/N-doped carbon electrocatalyst possessed abundant atomically dispersed non-planar Fe-N-4 ORR active sites, with absolute presence of active D1 (Fe-II-N-4) and D3 (N-Fe-II-N2+2) sites, as well as large specific surface area and three-dimensional porous structure with hierarchical micro-/meso-/macro-pore distribution, which increased the utilization of active sites and promoted mass transport of ORR reactants. This resulted in a remarkably superior ORR activity with half-wave potential of 0.87V (20mV higher than Pt/C) and kinetic current density of 10.9mAcm(-2) at 0.85V (2.3-fold of Pt/C) in alkaline electrolyte. This methodology provides a route for atomic-level design of high-performance ORR electrocatalyst.
