- Abstract:The development of high-performance and robust electrocatalyst suitable for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), hydrazine oxidation reaction (HzOR), and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in seawater still faces huge challenges. In this study, Cu-doped CoFe/Co encapsulated by N-doped carbon (Cu-CoFe/Co/NC) is synthesized via chemical precipitation followed by carbonization method, in which the electronic structure and d-band center of Cu-CoFe/Co/NC are regulated by metal doping and hetero-engineering. The as-synthesized Cu-CoFe/ Co/NC exhibit excellent electrocatalytic activity for ORR (E-1/2 = 0.87 V), HzOR (eta(10) = 281 mV), and HER (eta(-10) = 217 mV) in alkaline seawater. Inspiringly, the self-assembled direct hydrazine fuel cell (DHzFC) are used to power overall hydrazine splitting (OHzS) for proof of concept, demonstrating the great potential of Cu-CoFe/Co/NC as trifunctional electrocatalyst toward energy storage and conversion devices.
