Abstract

A non-precious FeCo nanoparticle decorated defective graphene (DG) sample, DG@FeCo, was successfully synthesized via a facile impregnation method. It is shown that DG@FeCo exhibits similar oxygen reduction reaction activity to that of commercial Pt/C, but has much better durability and is free from methanol poisoning in alkaline electrolytes.
