Abstract The development of highly efficient and stable non-precious metal electrocatalysts is essential for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). In this study, a simple polymerization pyrolysis method is proposed to prepare heteroatom-doped hollow carbon nanospheres (NPSC-800) by using Fe-BDC and phosphorus-containing polymers as precursors. The unique structure allows the catalyst to show good catalytic performance (Initial potential of 0.8786 V, a half-wave potential of 0.7576 V, and a diffusion-limited current density of 4.48 mA cm-2). This research provides an effective strategy for the synthesis of heteroatom-doped carbon materials with good ORR catalytic performance.

To explore high-performing alternatives to platinum-based catalysts is highly desirable for lowering costs and thus promoting fuel cell commercialization. Herein, self-supported Fe-N-C materials were prepared by the pyrolysis of dual precursors including EDTA ferric sodium (EDTAFeNa) and melamine (MA), followed by acid-leaching and final annealing. Towards an oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in 0.1 M KOH, the as-prepared MA/EDTAFeNa-HT2 delivered onset (Eonset) and half-wave (E1/2) potentials of 0.97 and 0.84 V vs. RHE, respectively, identical with that of a state-of-the-art Pt/C catalyst, accompanied with predominantly a four-electron pathway. The introduction of MA and extension of acid-leaching promoted a positive shift of 50 mV for E1/2 relative to that of only the EDTAFeNa-derived counterpart. It was revealed that the enhancement of ORR activity is attributed to a decrease in magnetic Fe species and increase in pyridinic/quanternary nitrogen content whilst nearly excluding effects of the graphitization degree, variety of crystalline iron species, and mesoscopic structure. The usage of dual precursors exhibited great potential for the large-scale production of inexpensive and efficient Fe-N-C materials.
