Abstract
- To overcome the drawbacks of the single N-doped carbon materials, the further development of dual-heteroatoms (N and S) co-doped electrocatalysts is highly anticipated. Herein, N, S-doping and Fe-based carbon materials were synthesized by pyrolyzing a metal–organic framework (MIL-88) with the addition of N-/N, and S-containing ligands (chitosan and L-Cysteine) in the case of iron salt. The resulting electrocatalyst heat-treated at 850 °C (FeNSC-850) displays superior oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) performances to MIL-88-850, with an overall electron transfer number of 3.97 and a minor yield of HO2- (<2.6%). In addition to the comparable activity to commercial Pt/C in catalyzing the ORR in alkaline solution, the FeNSC-850 also shows higher stability, with a slight decline in half-wave potential (∆E1/2 = 15 mV) after 5000-cycle scanning of cyclic voltammetry. In view of the multiple Fe-based active sites, the additional S doping within FeNSC-850 creates more FeSx active sites for boosting the ORR performances in alkaline solution. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
