Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p>A synthetic method is developed for the preparation of N‐doped porous carbon through hydrothermal treatment at controlled temperatures, using glucose and dicyandiamide as precursors, and ZnCl₂ as an activation reagent. The samples exhibit remarkable catalytic activity in the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in alkaline media, comparable to that of state‐of‐the‐art Pt/C catalysts, as discussed by L. Li, S.
