Abstract
and organic pollutants. Furthermore, the MCSS decorated with Fe-N-C active sites (MCSS-Fe) shows enhanced electrocatalytic ORR activity in alkaline solution. This novel approach may open a new avenue for controllable fabrication of porous carbon spheres with desired geometry and well-designed pore structure and show potential applications in selective adsorption and catalysis.
