▎ 摘　　要

Designing and preparing oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) catalysts with low cost, high activity and strong stability play a crucial function in the application of fuel cells and metal-air batteries. In this work, we use pristine graphite and carbon nanotubes (CNT) mixture as initial carbon source, and for the first time successfully prepare N, S-co-doped carbon nanotubes/graphene/MnS ternary hybrid (NSCNT/NSG/MnS) by modified Hummers' method followed by a pyrolysis process. The morphology, structure, composition and ORR performance of the obtained sample are measured by scanning electron microscope, X-ray diffraction and lots of other techniques. The results show that the successful synthesis of NSCNT/NSG/MnS is achieved by the combination of effective exploitation of residual Mn and S species and strong reducibility of carbon under high temperature. Besides, we find that the resultant NSCNT/NSG/MnS can not only effectively stabilize and disperse MnS nanoparticles, but also possess large specific surface area, high N content and unique 3D architecture. Compared to other counterparts, the obtained 3D NSCNT/NSG/MnS exhibits superior ORR performance (the onset potential moves positively to 1.00 V; limiting-current density achieves 4.93 mA/cm(2); ORR electron transfer number is close to four), which is proven to approach that of commercial Pt/C catalyst.
