Abstract
En 中文
Surface engineering has been identified as an effective way to maximize the utilization of noble atoms and facilitate the oxygen reduction reaction. However, a cost-effective and highly durable platform for tailoring the electrocatalytic activity, is still absent. Herein, we demonstrate a new and promising catalytic material of antiperovskite-typed PdNFe3 and construct a high performance PdNFe3 @Pd catalyst with atomic layers of strained Pd shell. The PdNFe3 @Pd/C catalyst presents a high mass activity (MA) of 1.14 A mg-Pd1 at 0.9 V, which is 9 and 6 times higher than those of the Pt/C and Pd/C, respectively. More importantly, the excellent performance of PdNFe3 @Pd/C was also verified in anion-exchange membrane fuel cells and rechargeable Zn-air batteries. Density functional theory calculations reveal that the strain effect aroused by the lattice mismatch between PdNFe3 core and Pd shell contributes to the enhanced ORR performance by optimizing the binding strength of oxygen intermediates on Pd.
