Metal-free doped carbon materials as electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction
Abstract
Carbon materials such as graphite, graphene, carbon nanotubes and ordered mesoporous carbon have attracted a lot of attention for their use in fuel cells, due to beneficial properties like high conductivity, high mechanical and chemical stability and, for the latter, high surface area. Doping these materials with nitrogen or, less commonly, other elements alters their (electronic) properties, making them particularly suitable for application as electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in a fuel cell. This paper reviews the synthesis methods employed for the doping of these different types of carbon materials with various elements and the characterization techniques used to investigate their physicochemical properties such as degree of graphitization, dopant content, dopant configuration and surface area. Furthermore, their application as electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction in a fuel cell is reviewed. Finally, the possible mechanisms for the ORR on N-doped carbon materials are critically discussed and compared to the mechanisms of commercial Pt/C electrocatalysts.

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.
