Abstract

High surface area carbon with a nitrogen content of 7.0% is derived from MOF via in situ g-C₃N₄ formation. The material shows excellent ORR activity with an onset potential of 0.035 V (vs. Hg/HgO) in alkaline medium apart from high durability and strong disinclination towards methanol crossover.
