Abstract
Iron and cobalt phthalocyanine embedded electrospun carbon nanofiber-based oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) catalysts were prepared in this investigation by combined approach of pyrolysis and acid leaching. The catalyst exhibited the ORR half-wave potential of 0.71 V vs reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE) in 0.5 M H2SO4 electrolyte solution.
