Abstract

A novel dendritic titanium oxynitride (TiNxOy) nanostructure composed of nanowires of 15-20 nm in diameter has been prepared. The dendritic TiNxOy nanostructure nitrided at 900 °C possesses high electrocatalytic activity for ORR with a four-electron process, high onset potential of -0.13 V, and superior durability compared with the commercial 10% Pt/C catalyst.
