Abstract:
Oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) plays a crucial role in electrochemical energy conversion and storage devices such as metal–air batteries and water electrolyzers. Herein, a hierarchical nanoporous platinum-based metallic glass (NPMG) was developed by a facile fabrication method by dissolving in a liquid. The surface topography of the sample can be easily modulated by controlling the particle size of sodium chloride. As a result, the NPMG was proved to be efficient and robust as the ORR catalysts with super hydrophilicity and self-renewal capacity. The half-wave potential of the platinum-based porous material was 835 mV at 0.1 M KOH, even higher than that of the commercial Pt/C catalyst (823 mV) and the previously reported platinum material. In particular, platinum-based porous materials have extremely long stability (more than 500 h) through the self-renewal surface, which perfectly meets the requirements of catalyst stability in batteries. Our study has a better inspiration for developing and applying novel catalysts to prepare metal–air batteries.
