As ynthetic metho dw as developed for the preparation of Ndoped porous carbon through hydrotherma lt reatment at controlled temperatures by using glucos ea nd dicyandiamide as precursors and ZnCl2 as an activation reagent. Nitrogen doping was quantitatively determined by using XPS measurements and identified in the forms of pyridinic, pyrrolic ,g raphitic, and pyridinic N + ¢ O ¢ nitrogen atoms. Further structural analysi sb y using SEM, TEM, XRD, Raman, FTIR, and BET measurements showe dt hat the N-doped porou sc arbon se xhibited am icrocrystalline graphite structure and ah igh specific surface area up to 1000 m 2 g ¢1 .E lectrochemical studies showed that the samples all exhibited ar emarkabl eO RR catalytic activity in alkaline media, which was comparable to that of state-of-the-art Pt/C catalysts, and the one prepared at 800 8 Cw as found to be the best among the series with an onset potentia lo f +0.96 V, almos tc omplete reduction of oxygen to OH ¢ ,a nd superior methano lt olerance and cycling stability.
