▎ 摘  要

Nitrogen-doped transition metal materials display promising potential as bifunctional electrocatalysts for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Herein, Fe/N co-doped three-dimensional (3D) porous graphene (FeN-3D-PG) is prepared via a template method using sodium alginate as the carbon source and low polymerization degree melamine resin as the nitrogen source. The low polymerization degree melamine resin can form complexes with Fe3+ in the aqueous solution and further forms high density Fe-N-x active sites during pyrolysis. Meanwhile, the formed 3D porous structure efficiently promotes the uniform distribution of Fe-N-x active sites. The FeN-3D-PG catalyst exhibits pH-independent ORR activity. For OER, the catalyst possesses a low over potential (370 mV at 10 mA cm(-2)) in alkaline electrolyte. The Zn-air batteries (ZABs) using FeN-3D-PG as cathode exhibits a power density up to 212 mW cm(-2), a high specific capacity of 651 mAh g(-1), and the charge-discharge stability of 80 h. This work provides new sight to transition metal materials based ZABs with excellent performance. (C) 2021 Hydrogen Energy Publications LLC. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
