title: Cobalt Oxide and Cobalt-Graphitic Carbon Core-Shell Based Catalysts with Remarkably High Oxygen Reduction Reaction Activity.
abstract: The vital role of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acidon the structure and the oxygen reduction reaction activity of the non-precious-metal-based pyrolyzed catalyst is reported and elaborated. The resultant catalyst can overtake the performance of commercial Pt/C catalyst in an alkaline medium.
