FeNC Oxygen Reduction Electrocatalyst with High Utilization Penta‐Coordinated Sites

Abstract: Atomic Fe in N-doped carbon (FeNC) electrocatalysts for oxygen (O 2 ) reduction at the cathode of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) are the most promising alternative to platinum-group-metal catalysts. Despite recent progress on atomic FeNC O 2 reduction, their controlled synthesis and stability for practical applications remains challenging. A two-step synthesis approach has recently led to significant advances in terms of Fe-loading and mass activity; however, the Fe utilisation remains low owing … Show more

“…[ 21,22 ] However, very recently we reported a synthetic protocol to prepare highly electrochemically accessible FeNC single atom catalysts (FeN x electrochemical utilization >50%) employing a decoupled two‐step synthesis that entailed low temperature metalation of a templated micro‐ and mesoporous catalyst. [ 23 ]…”

“…Consequently, it is very essential to explore alternate non-PGM electrocatalysts for boosting ORR performance in fuel cells. 6 Transition-metal vanadium-based blended metal oxides, especially for Ni 3 V 2 O 8 , have been of great interest as an alternative candidate for PGM components in electrocatalysts because of their plentiful valence states, abundant reserves, and low prices. 7,8 But Ni 3 V 2 O 8 has always been limited by low conductivity and sluggish kinetics.…”

“…At present, platinum (Pt)-group metal (PGM) components are improving the sluggish cathodic ORR kinetics and exhibit acceptable electrocatalytic ORR performance, , albeit at a high cost and low natural reserves. Consequently, it is very essential to explore alternate non-PGM electrocatalysts for boosting ORR performance in fuel cells …”
