Synthesis and characterization of fluorinated Co-Zn-Zeolitic imidazole frameworks for catalysis of the oxygen reduction reaction
- The oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is a common process in a variety of electrochemical devices, like fuel cells
and metal air batteries. The sluggish kinetics of the ORR require an electrocatalyst to pass this bottleneck.[1]
Currently, the most used catalytical systems are platinum-based, with several drawbacks, such as the high cost,
low availability, and deactivation by CO poisoning.[2] Efforts are made to develop efficient, durable and low cost
catalysts to promote the commercialization of fuel cells.
Non-precious metal catalysts are promising candidates for efficient ORR catalysis. It has been shown that
pyrolyzing metal organic frameworks (MOFs) under inert conditions yields carbon-rich materials, with evenly
distributed metal sites, which possess promising electrocatalytic activity.[3] One widely used type of MOF as ORR
catalyst precursors is the zeolitic imidazole framework (ZIF) where metal cations are linked through imidazolebased ligands.

Herein we report the mechanochemical synthesis, structural analysis and of Co-doped ZIF-8 (Zn), as well as its
fluorinated counterpart Co-doped CF3
-ZIF-8 (Zn). The samples showed electrochemical performance comparable
to platinum after carbonization for 1h at temperatures ranging between 850 – 1000°C.…
