▎ 摘　　要

A FeNx-C-based catalyst is considered one of the most promising candidates for the highest oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) activities among nonprecious metal-based electrocatalysts. In this work, a unique catalyst of nitrogen-doped twisted macroscopic graphene tubes decorated with Fe-Nx and bamboo-like carbon nanotubes (CNT) was prepared by using twisted iron wire as a template and cyanamide as a carbon source. The microstructure and physicochemical natures of the samples were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic (XPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and nitrogen adsorption/desorption measurements. Torsion can promote the dislocation of the iron wire lattice, and activate the surface Fe atoms, thus leading to the growth of bamboo-like carbon nanotubes and forming iron nitride. The product has a graphene-like macroscopic tube structure and exhibits excellent ORR activity. Such excellent ORR performance may be ascribed to the synergistic effect, including high ORR catalytic sites caused by the dislocation of the iron wire lattice, nitrogen heteroatoms doping, favorable reactant transport channels provided by macroscopic tube structure, and fast electron transfer rate induced by 3D continuous networks.
