▎ 摘 要
Doping carbon materials have proved to be the front runners to substitute for Pt as oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) catalysts. Fluorine-doped graphene (FG) has rarely been used as ORR catalyst because of the difficulty in preparation. Herein, we report FG sheets prepared by a thermal pyrolysis graphene oxide (GO) process in the presence of zinc fluoride (ZnF2) as an efficient electrocatalyst for ORR in the alkaline medium. The results show that the pyrolysis temperature seriously affected the doped fluoride amount and morphology of catalyst. It is found that the FG-1100 catalyst possesses a more positive onset potential, higher current density and better four-electron process for ORR than other FG samples. FG-1100 displays an outstanding ORR catalytic activity that is comparable to that of the commercial Pt/C catalyst. Also, its durability and methanol tolerance ability are superior to those of the commercial Pt/C. The excellent ORR catalytic performance is closely related to its higher doped fluorine amount and wrinkle morphology. The FG catalyst can be developed as a low-cost, efficient and durable catalyst as a viable replacement for the Pt/C catalyst, promoting the commercialization of fuel cells.
