| 2 | CrN-Encapsulated Hollow Cr-N-C Capsules Boosting Oxygen Reduction Catalysis in PEMFC显示文摘Understanding the origin of the catalytic activity for the development of efficient catalysts is critical yet challenging.Herein,we report a simple strategy for the synthesis of chromium nitride nanoparticles(CrNNPs)encapsulated into hollow chromium-nitrogen-carbon capsules(CrN@H-Cr-N_(x)-C).The CrN@H-Cr-N_(x)-C demonstrated excellent electrocatalytic activity for the oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)in acidic solutions.When applied as a cathode material in a proton-exchange membrane fuel cell(PEMFC),the CrN@H-Cr-N_(x)-C achieved outstanding initial performance,which is better than that of the PEMFC with H-Cr-N_(x)-C cathode material.The CrN@H-Cr-N_(x)-C cathode also showed good stability over 110 h of operation.These results demonstrated that the coexistence of atomically dispersed CrN_(x) sites and sufficient CrNNPs is essential for excellent PEMFC performances.Density functional theory(DFT)studies further corroborated that CrNNPs can boost the ORR activity of H-Cr-N_(x)-C.This finding opens a new avenue for the fabrication of low-cost,highly active,and durable ORR catalysts for PEMFC and other applications. | Hui Yang Xu Wang Tao Zheng Nelly Cantillo Cuello Gabriel Goenaga Thomas A.Zawodzinski He Tian Joshua T.Wright Robert W.Meulenberg Xiangke Wang Zhenhai Xia Shengqian Ma | 2021 | CCS Chemistry2021，3，5： | 2 |
