A non-noble metal catalyst for ORR was synthesized from Fe(II)-phthalocyanine.
High ORR activity and selectivity for direct 4-electrons reduction to H2O.
High methanol tolerance and good potential candidate for DMFC cathode application.
Optimization of electrode formulation regarding catalyst load and Nafion® content.
Higher durability in DMFC compared to Pt/C catalyst in short term test (3 h).
