Abstract:
Fe-N-C single-atom catalysts (SACs) have emerged as one of the most promising candidates for oxygen electrocatalysis due to their maximized atom utilization efficiency, high intrinsic activity, and strong metal-support interaction. Significant progress has been made in engineering Fe-N-C SACs for oxygen electrocatalysis in Zn-air batteries (ZABs). This review provides a comprehensive overview of the recent advancements in Fe-N-C SACs, with a special focus on effective engineering strategies, their performance in oxygen electrocatalysis, and their potential applications in ZABs. The review also discusses the key challenges and future directions in the development of Fe-N-C SACs for efficient and durable oxygen electrocatalysis in ZABs. This review aims to offer valuable insights into the current state of research in this field and to guide future efforts in the development of advanced oxygen electrocatalysts for ZABs.
