摘要: In this communication, we report on the solvothermal preparation of spinel ZnCo2O4/N-doped carbon nanotube (ZnCo2O4/NCNT) composite. As a novel oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) electrocatalyst, ZnCo2O4/NCNT composite shows high activity via four-electron pathway in alkaline solution. Such catalyst also exhibits superior methanol tolerance ability and durability over commercial Pt/C catalyst.
