Abstract

Abstract The sluggish oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) kinetics in air cathode severely refrain the development of the reversible Zn-air battery. Herein, we report the design and synthesis of co-doped Fe-Co4N@N-C nanosheet array derived from MOF precursor on carbon cloth as the dual-functional electrocatalyst to boost the reaction kinetics. The Fe, N co-doping significantly promotes the generation of abundant Pyridinic-N-M active sites for ORR due to the strong coordination effect between metal center and pyridinic nitrogen. The enriched Co3+ sites concurrently motivate the formation of targeted *OOH intermediates during OER with decreased charge transfer resistance. Such electrocatalyst therefore delivers high catalytic activity for both ORR and OER. When applied as air cathode for liquid Zn-air battery, the device exhibits a high specific energy density of 934 Wh kg−1 with excellent cycling stability, which is superior to the referenced Pt and Ru-based Zn-air batteries. Flexible solid-state Zn-air battery can also achieve a high volumetric power density of 72 mW cm-3 and good cycling durability under different bending states. This work gives a facile and cost-efficient strategy to construct bifunctional flexible electrode with enriched active sites for Zn-air batteries.

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.
