CO poisoning of Pt catalysts is one the most critical problems that deteriorate electrocatalytic oxidation and reduction reactions taking place in fuel cells. In general, enhancing properties by tailoring electronic structure (electronic effect) or increasing amount supplied oxygen species (bifunctional effect), which typical reactant for oxidation, has been performed to remove from surface. However, though there have a few reports about understanding effect rapid separate bifunctional...

Nitrogen-doped porous carbon materials have been highlighted as promising alternatives to high-cost platinum in various electrochemical energy applications. However, protocols generate effective pore structure are still challenging, which hampers mass production and utilization of materials. Here, we suggest a facile method for hierarchical by single-step carbonization coffee waste (CW) with ZnCl2. The CW, is one the most earth-abundant organic waste, can be successfully converted...

Abstract We have achieved performance enhancement of polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) though crack generation on its electrodes. It is the first attempt to enhance PEMFC by using cracks which are generally considered as defects. The pre-defined, cracked electrode was generated stretching a catalyst-coated Nafion membrane. With strain-stress property that unique in aspect plastic deformation, assembly (MEA) successfully incorporated into cell. Cracked electrodes with variation...

Ordered mesoporous carbon–carbon nanotube (OMC–CNT) nanocomposites were prepared and used as catalyst supports for polymer electrolyte fuel cells. The OMC–CNT composites synthesized via a nanocasting method that ordered silica template Ni–phthalocyanine carbon source. For comparison, sucrose phthalocyanine to generate two other OMCs, OMC(Suc) OMC(Pc), respectively. All three carbons exhibited hexagonally mesostructures uniform mesopores. Among the showed highest electrical conductivity,...

Abstract Lithium-sulphur batteries are under intense research due to the high specific capacity and low cost. However, several problems limit their commercialization. One of them is insulating nature sulphur, which necessitates a large amount conductive agent binder in cathode, reducing effective sulphur load as well energy density. Here we introduce redox mediator, cobaltocene, acts an electron transfer between surface polysulphides electrolyte. We confirmed that cobaltocene could...

Biomass-derived carbon, as a low-cost material source, is an attractive choice to prepare carbon materials, thus providing alternative by-product and waste management. Herein, we report the preparation of from hemp stem biomass precursor through simple, low-cost, environment-friendly method with using steam activating agent. The hemp-derived hierarchically porous structure partial graphitization in amorphous domains was developed, for first time, it applied anode lithium-ion battery. Natural...

Integrated with heat-generating devices, a Li-ion battery (LIB) often operates at 20-40 °C higher than the ordinary working temperature. Although macroscopic investigation of thermal contribution has shown significant reduction in LIB performance, molecular level structural and chemical origin aging mild environment not been elucidated. On basis combined experiments electrochemical measurements, Cs-corrected electron microscopy, situ analyses, we herein provide operando insights on how...
