Résumé

A significant barrier to the commercialization of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) is the high cost of the platinum-based oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) cathode electrocatalysts. One viable solution is to replace platinum with a platinum-group metal (PGM) free catalyst with comparable activity and durability. However, PGM-free catalyst development is burdened by a lack of understanding of the active site formation mechanism during the requisite high-temperature synthesis step, thus making rational catalyst design challenging. Herein we demonstrate in-temperature X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) to unravel the mechanism of site evolution during pyrolysis for a manganese-based catalyst. We show the transformation from an initial state of manganese oxides (MnO
