University at Buffalo-led team reports viable Mn-based catalyst for PEM fuel cells

Green Car Congress

A University at Buffalo-led research team has developed an efficient platinum group metal (PGM)-free catalyst for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in PEM fuel cells that consists of atomically dispersed nitrogen-coordinated single Mn sites on partially graphitic carbon (Mn-N-C). It could finally address this problem.
