摘要：Low-cost non-noble metal nanoparticles are promising electrocatalysts that can catalyze oxygen evolution re-action (OER). Various factors such as poor activity and stability hinder the practical applications of these ma-terials. The electroactivity and durability of the electrocatalysts can be improved by optimizing the morphology and composition of the materials. Herein, we report the successful synthesis of hollow porous carbon (HPC) catalysts loaded with ternary alloy (FeCoNi) nanoparticles (HPC-FeCoNi) for efficient OER. HPC is firstly syn-thesized by a facile carbon deposition method using the hierarchical porous zeolite ZSM-5 as the hard template. Numerous defects are generated on the carbon shell during the removal of zeolite template. Subsequently, FeCoNi alloy nanoparticles are supported on HPC by a sequence of impregnation and H2 reduction processes. The synergistic effect between carbon defects and FeCoNi alloy nanoparticles endows the catalyst with an excellent OER performance (low overpotential of 219 mV; Tafel slope of 60.1 mV dec- 1) in a solution of KOH (1 M). A stable potential is maintained during the continuous operation over 72 h. The designed HPC-FeCoNi presents a platform for the development of electrocatalysts that can be potentially applied for industrial OER.
