Nitrogen-doped porous carbon derived from ZIF-8 as a support of electrocatalyst for enhanced oxygen reduction reaction in acidic solution

The composites of platinum (Pt) nanoparticles (NPs) loaded on nitrogen-doped porous carbon (NPC) derived from ZIF-8 were prepared. Since the effect of different types of nitrogen-doped sites, the composite Pt@NPC-900-6 exhibits better catalytic performance for oxygen reduction reaction. 131
