Abstract
was delivered at a potential of 1.48 V. In comparison to 10% Pt/C, the synthesized bifunctional electrocatalyst being almost equally active towards bifunctional activity, showed much better long-term cyclic stability. The one-step thermal pyrolysis strategy to synthesize the nanoporous functional material and the proposed electrocatalytic material's long-term bifunctional activity and durability make it an ideal fit for next-generation portable green metal-air batteries.
