Journal ArticleDOI
A review on non-precious metal electrocatalysts for PEM fuel cells
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors highlight the progress made over the past 40 years with a detailed discussion of recent works in the area of non-precious metal electrocatalysts for oxygen reduction reaction, a necessary reaction at the PEM fuel cell cathode.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A comparative analysis of electrocatalyst and carbon emissions assessment of CO2 products such as ethylene, ethanol, and carbon monoxide shows that electrocatalytic production has the potential to yield the greatest reduction in carbon emissions, provided that a steady supply of clean electricity is available.
Journal ArticleDOI
Direct atomic-level insight into the active sites of a high-performance PGM-free ORR catalyst.

TL;DR: H2-air performance gains are demonstrated with an iron-nitrogen-carbon catalyst synthesized with two nitrogen precursors that developed hierarchical porosity, and the proposed catalytically active site is FeN4.
Journal ArticleDOI
A review of graphene and graphene oxide sponge: material synthesis and applications to energy and the environment
TL;DR: A comprehensive review about the most recent progress in synthesis, characterization, fundamental understanding, and performance of graphene and graphene oxide sponges can be found in this paper, where the technical challenges are discussed, and several future research directions are also suggested.
Journal ArticleDOI
The application of graphene and its composites in oxygen reduction electrocatalysis: a perspective and review of recent progress
TL;DR: In this article, a critical review of the knowledge generated and progress realized over these past years for the development of graphene-based ORR catalysts is provided, and some common misconceptions or improper testing practices used throughout the literature are revealed.
