A Review of Graphene‐Based Nanostructural Materials for Both Catalyst Supports and Metal‐Free Catalysts in PEM Fuel Cell Oxygen Reduction Reactions

Zhou, Xuejun, Qiao, Jinli, Yang, Lin, Zhang, Jiujun·2014·Advanced Energy Materials

Abstract

A comprehensive overview and description of graphene‐based nanomaterials explored in recent years for catalyst supports and metal‐free catalysts for polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cell oxygen reduction reactions (ORR) is presented. The catalyst material structures/morphologies, material selection, and design for synthesis, catalytic performance, catalytic mechanisms, and theoretical approaches for catalyst down‐selection and catalyzed ORR mechanisms are emphasized with respect to the performance of ORR catalysts in terms of both activity and stability. When graphene‐based materials, including graphene and doped graphene, are used as the supporting materials for both Pt/Pt alloy catalysts and non‐precious metal catalyst, the resulting ORR catalysts can give superior catalyst activity and stability compared to those of conventional carbon‐supported catalysts; when they are used as metal‐free ORR catalysts, significant catalytic activity and stability are observed. The nitrogen‐doped graphene materials even show superior performance compared to supported metal catalysts. Challenges including the lack of material mass production, unoptimized catalyst structure/morphology, insufficient fundamental understanding, and testing tools/protocols for performance optimization and validation are identified, and approaches to address these challenges are suggested.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
