Silk-Derived Highly Active Oxygen Electrocatalysts for Flexible and Rechargeable Zn–Air Batteries
Abstract
Flexible and rechargeable Zn–air batteries, because of their high energy density, low cost, and environmental and human benignity, are one kind of the most attractive energy systems for future wearable electronics. The development of high-performance rechargeable Zn–air batteries depends on the synthesis of highly efficient and highly stable electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction/oxygen evolution reaction (ORR/OER). Herein, a silk-derived defect-rich and nitrogen-doped nanocarbon electrocatalyst [SilkNC/Ketjenblack (KB)] is reported. The SilkNC/KB is synthesized by pyrolyzing commercially available porous KB carbon impregnated with silk fibroin. It exhibits remarkable electrocatalytic activities and long-term stability for the ORR/OER, enabling its applications in high-performance liquid and solid rechargeable Zn–air batteries. Particularly, the all-solid-state Zn–air battery based on SilkNC/KB exhibits good flexibility and remarkable charge/discharge stability, enabling its promising applications in wearable and energy-efficient batteries.

The N1s spectrum of SilkNCT can be fitted by four peaks attributed to pyridinic N, pyrrolic N, quaternary or graphitic N, and pyridine N-oxide N, indicating that part of N elements in pristine silk transformed into N substituents in graphitic carbon.
“Figure 1F shows that the N1s spectrum could be fitted by four peaks attributed to the pyridinic N, pyrrolic N, quaternary or graphitic N, and pyridine N-oxide N, respectively, indicating that part of N elements in pristine silk has transformed into N substituents in graphitic carbon (34, 35, 37).”

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.
