Zusammenfassung: | © 2024 Wiley‐VCH GmbH. Demetalation caused by the electrochemical dissolution of metallic Fe atoms is a major challenge for the practical application of Fe─N─C catalysts. Herein, an efficient single metallic Mn active site is constructed to improve the strength of the Fe─N bond, inhibiting the demetalation effect of Fe─N─C. Mn acts as an electron donor inducing more delocalized electrons to reduce the oxidation state of Fe by increasing the electron density, thereby enhancing the Fe─N bond and inhibiting the electrochemical dissolution of Fe. The oxygen reduction reaction pathway for the dissociation of Fe─Mn dual sites can overcome the high energy barriers to direct O─O bond dissociation and modulate the electronic states of Fe─N4 sites. The resulting FeMn─N─C exhibits excellent ORR activity with a high half-wave potential of 0.92 V in alkaline electrolytes. FeMn─N─C as a cathode catalyst for Zn-air batteries has a cycle stability of 700 h at 25 °C and a long cycle stability of more than 210 h under extremely cold conditions at -40 °C. These findings contribute to the development of efficient and stable metal-nitrogen-carbon catalysts for various energy devices |
