Abstract: [Display omitted] Heteroatom-doped carbon catalysts are promising alternatives to platinum group metal-free catalysts for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). To enhance the ORR activity of carbon-based catalysts, the break of electroneutrality and number of active sites must be maximized. In this study, an annealing process at a mild temperature was introduced before heteroatom doping to control the content and configuration of the oxygen functional groups on the graphene oxide (GO). Pre-annealing affects the chemical configuration and the porosity of GO such that the epoxy groups are converted into carbonyl groups accompanying the defect formation. Interestingly, The carbonyl-enriched environment allowed ammonia borane, as a dopant with nitrogen and boron atoms, the enhanced doping performance, inducing the formation of higher number of heteroatom doping sites and additional defects in the graphene lattice. The aBNG-150 catalyst demonstrated outstanding ORR activity in both half- and single-cell evaluations because it had the highest heteroatom content and meso/macropores derived from the elimination of oxygen functional groups, which can facilitate ORR catalytic activity and O 2 diffusion pathway. Therefore, we believe that this approach provides an effective route for synthesizing carbon-based catalysts with remarkable ORR performances. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
