Pyrolyzed CoN4-chelate as an electrocatalyst for oxygen reduction reaction in acid media

A novel platinum-free electrocatalyst CoTETA/C for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) was prepared from pyrolysis of carbon-supported cobalt triethylenetetramine chelate under an inert atmosphere. X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurement showed that nanometallic face-centered cubic (fcc) crystalline a-Co ph...
