摘要
Abstract The insufficient durability of Pt‐based catalysts and the sluggish kinetics of oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is hampering the development of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) for commercialization. Herein, a single atom Ti‐modified activated nitrogen‐doped porous carbon (Ti‐a‐NPC) is designed to equalize O 2 ‐activation/ * OH‐removal through regulating the charge rearrangement of ultra‐small L1 2 ‐Pt 3 Co for efficient and durable oxygen reduction. The Ti single‐atom modified in the surface/pore of Ti‐a‐NPC can anchor the Pt‐based intermetallic nanoparticles (NPs) not only guarantees Pt‐based intermetallics’ ultra‐fine size (≈2.62 nm) but also maintains Pt‐based intermetallics during ORR process. The enhanced catalyst (L1 2 ‐Pt 3 Co/Ti‐a‐NPC) achieves 11‐fold mass activity (1.765 A mg Pt −1 ) compared to commercial Pt/C. Notably, after 30 000 cycles of accelerated durability tests, the mass activity of the L1 2 ‐Pt 3 Co/Ti‐a‐NPC only decreased by 3.7%, while that of commercial Pt/C decreased by 37.1%. Rationalized by theoretical simulation, the introduction of Ti atoms can form charge channels between L1 2 ‐Pt 3 Co NPs and Ti‐a‐NPC, accelerating the charge transfer in the ORR process. Furthermore, the charge of L1 2 ‐Pt 3 Co will accumulate to Ti atoms and buffer the electron transfer of L1 2 ‐Pt 3 Co to the N atoms, thus optimizing the adsorption performance of the active site to the oxygen‐containing intermediate and improving the intrinsic activity of the catalyst.
