Improving the performance of biomass-based electrocatalysts by means of hot pressing

Abstract

To address the problem of decoupling arising from weak binding of extrinsic agents to biomass during its conversion to electrocatalysts, we put forward the hot-pressing method by which heterogeneous solids...

Exploiting enzymes to optimize the pH-universal electrocatalytic ORR performance of biomass-based nanoporous carbons

“…Generally, the greater the Tafel slope, the slower the kinetics. 53 In view of this, the Tafel slope of HE-NDPC-900 is smaller than that of Pt/C, indicating the faster electrocatalytic kinetics of the former. The tolerance to methanol crossover and long-term durability are crucial for practical application of electrocatalysts.…”
