摘要
Nitrogen doped carbon material works as non-noble-metal catalyst for the oxygen reduction reaction. In this work the doping effect on two different carbon material by two different nitrogen sources is studied. The carbon material studied is self-prepared carbon ribbon with higher graphitization degree compared with commercial Vulcan XC72 carbon powder. NH3 and glycine are used as nitrogen sources which produce nitrogen containing functionalities after high temperature pyrolysis. NH3 doping, of carbon ribbon has no positive effect on the ORR activity, while an obvious increase in the activity is found for the glycine doped carbon ribbon. The NH3 and glycine doped Vulcan carbon show similar activities which are better than undoped Vulcan carbon. The difference is explained by graphitization degree, nitrogen content and type of nitrogen containing functionalities. (C) 2016 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
