2D Layered non-precious metal mesoporous electrocatalysts for enhanced oxygen reduction reaction

2D Layered meso-M/N-C/N-G nanocomposites with high specific surface area, homogeneous distribution of ultra-small M-N-C nanoparticles less than 5 nm, and mesopores with a size of ∼3.6 nm exhibit excellent electrocatalytic activity toward oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in acidic and alkaline media.
