Abstract

High-temperature pyrolyzed FeN(x)/C catalyst is one of the most promising nonprecious metal electrocatalysts for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). However, it suffers from two challenging problems: insufficient ORR activity and unclear active site structure. Herein, we report a FeN(x)/C catalyst derived from poly-m-phenylenediamine (PmPDA-FeN(x)/C) that possesses high ORR activity (11.5 A g(-1) at 0.80 V vs RHE) and low H2O2 yield (
