Synergistically enhanced electrochemical (ORR) activity of graphene oxide using boronic acid as an interlayer spacer.

چکیده
Herein, boronic acid is incorporated into a graphene oxide (GO) structure in order to synthesise a graphene organic framework (GOF) with enhanced electrochemical performance. The results obtained indicate that the GOF favours a 4e(-) reduction pathway in the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR).

Performance comparison of graphene and graphene oxide-supported palladium nanoparticles as a highly efficient catalyst in oxygen reduction
In this work, the performance of graphene nanosheets (GNs) and graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets, as a support for palladium nanoparticles (PdNPs) toward oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), was studied. The graphene nanosheets were functionalized by a new and simple method. The PdNPs were synthesized on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified with GNs or GO via a potentiostatic method; without using...
متن کاملOxygen reduction reaction by electrochemically reduced graphene oxide.
We show that a partially reduced graphene oxide electrocatalyst, synthesized by electrochemical reduction of graphene oxide (GO), displays significantly enhanced catalytic activity towards the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in alkaline solutions compared to the starting GO. The electrochemical partial reduction of GO was confirmed by X-ray diffraction and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Elec...
