Biomass derived Fe-N/C catalyst for efficiently catalyzing oxygen reduction reaction in both alkaline and neutral pH conditions
Fe-N/C is a promising oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)catalyst to substitute the current widely used precious metal platinum.Cost-effectively fabricating the Fe-N/C material with high catalytic activity and getting in-depth insight into the responsible catalytic site are of great significance.In this work,we proposed to use biomass,tea leaves waste,as the precursor to prepare ORR catalyst.By adding 5%FeCl3(wt%)into tea precursor,the pyrolysis product(i.e.,5%Fe-N/C)exhibited an excellent four-electron ORR activity,whose onset potential was only 10 m V lower than that of commercial Pt/C.The limiting current density of 5%Fe-N/C(5.75 m A/cm^(2))was even higher than Pt/C(5.44 m A/cm^(2)).Compared with other biomass or metal organic frameworks derived catalysts,5%Fe-N/C showed similar ORR activity.Also,both the methanol tolerance and material stability performances of as-prepared 5%Fe-N/C catalyst were superior to that of Pt/C.X-ray adsorption fine structure characterization revealed that the FeN4O2might be the possible catalytic site.An appropriate amount of iron chloride addition not only facilitated catalytic site formation,but also enhanced material conductivity and reaction kinetics.The results of this work may be useful for the Fe based transition metal ORR catalyst design and application.
