Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, the preparation of Me-N by high-temperature pyrolysis x In the process of -C catalyst, there are two main problems restricting the improvement of its catalytic performance
On the one hand, metal atoms are usually transformed into various metal-based nanoparticles, such as metal elements, oxides, carbides, nitrides, etc., which have poor or completely useless ability to catalyze ORR.
On the other hand, Me-N 4 The active site will be lost in large quantities
