N-doped MWCNT composite with MnCo2O4 was prepared by single step hydrothermal method.
The half-wave potentials of MWCNT-MnCo2O4 is 30 mV higher than MWCNT and 150 mV higher than MnCo2O4 catalyst.
MWCNT-MnCo2O4 hybrid exhibits an improved ORR activity in an aqueous alkaline medium compared to pristine samples.
