Design: of the non-precious-metal bifunctional electrocatalyst with high performance and remarkable stability is the most critical issue for the rechargeable ZAB. Herein, a simple and convenient method for synthesizing trimetallic Fe/Co/Zn-ZIF-derived porous carbon as the bifunctional electrocatalyst towards oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) has been developed. The optimal trimetallic ZIF-derived carbon material shows a marked ORR catalytic activity with a more positive onset potential (Eo) of 1.010 V and half-wave potential (E1/2) of 0.853 V, which is superior to the commercial Pt/C catalyst. Moreover, it also exhibits the excellent OER performance with lower overpotential of 352 mV at 10 mA cm-2 in 1 M KOH than that of RuO2 and the observed Tafel slope of 82 mV dec(-1). A rechargeable ZAB assembled with the as-prepared ZIFderived porous carbon as an air cathode displays the superior performance with a maximum current density of 240.7 mA cm-2 and a peak power density of 156.7 mW cm-2 as well as a specific capacity of 769.13 mAh g-1, much larger than those of ZAB equipped with Pt/C-RuO2.
