Nitrogen doping in carbon materials can modify the employed carbon material’s electronic and structural properties, which helps in creating a stronger metal-support interaction. In this study, the role of nitrogen doping in improving the durability of Pt catalysts supported on a three-dimensional vertically aligned carbon nanofiber (VACNF) array towards oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) was explored. The nitrogen moieties present in the N-VACNF enhanced the metal-support interaction and contributed to a reduction in the Pt particle size from 3.1 nm to 2.3 nm. The Pt/N-VACNF catalyst showed better durability when compared to Pt/VACNF and Pt/C catalysts with similar Pt loading. DFT calculations validated the increase in the durability of the Pt NPs with an increase in pyridinic N and corroborated the molecular ORR pathway for Pt/N-VACNF. Moreover, the Pt/N-VACNF catalyst was found to have excellent tolerance towards methanol crossover.
