Abstract
The expense of commonly used electrocatalysts such as Platinum and Palladium, make many battery technologies and electrochemical reactions cost-prohibitive. A new group of promising low-cost catalysts is doped carbon complexes. These materials need further development to reach the same activity as traditional catalysts. But by examining the Oxidative Reduction Reactions (ORR) of various carbon complexes, desirable characteristics and geometries can be identified and enhanced. For this comparative analysis, a series of Carbon Nanotube (CNT) and Graphene Complexes were tested.
