Co nanoparticles embedded N-doped hierarchical porous carbon matrix as an efficient electrocatalyst for oxygen reduction reaction

Co based catalysts are the promising substitutes for PVC catalysts in oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). However, designing efficient Co based catalysts still remains a challenge due to many restrictions including charge transfer, mass transport and utilization of active sites, etc. Herein, Co nanoparticles embedded 3D-interconnected hierarchical porous (macro/meso/microporous) carbon matrixes with carbon nanotubes as building blocks (marked as Co@h-ZIF-800) were prepared. The prepared Co@h-ZIF-800 showed fast charge transfer and maintained the channels for continuous O-2 transport. High surface area and efficient utilization of active sites also made Co@h-ZIF-800 exhibited excellent ORR performance with half-wave potential of 0.906 V (vs. RHE), 26 mV positive than commercial Pt/C. Our work can provide an effective strategy to explore efficient Co based electrocatalysts with hierarchical structure.
