▎ 摘　　要

In this work the electrocatalysis of oxygen reduction on iron and cobalt phthalocyanine modified reduced graphene oxide/multi-walled carbon nanotube (rGO/MWCNT) composite catalyst has been investigated. Modification of the carbon support was achieved by pyrolysing the mixture of rGO/MWCNT in the presence of metallophthalocyanine compounds at 800 degrees C. The surface morphology, graphitisation and surface composition of the catalyst materials were characterised by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), micro-Raman spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) was studied in 0.1 M KOH and 0.5 M H2SO4 solutions on glassy carbon electrodes modified with MN4-macrocycle/rGO/MWCNT catalysts employing the rotating disk electrode (RDE) method. The RDE results show that both iron and cobalt phthalocyanine modified rGO/MWCNT electrocatalysts are highly active for ORR in alkaline solution while in acid media these materials exhibit only modest ORR activity.
