Oxygen reduction catalysts based on heteroatom-doped mesoporous carbon nanotubes loaded with Co2P nanoparticles were skilfully fabricated. The electronic interaction between the embedded Co2P nanoparticles and the heteroatom-doped carbon structures could strongly promote the ORR catalytic performance of the heteroatom-doped carbon nanotubes.
Hybrids based on transition metal phosphide (Mn2P, Co2P, Ni2P) nanoparticles and heteroatom-doped carbon nanotubes were facilely synthesized, and used as efficient oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) catalysts in alkaline solution.
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.
