The sluggish oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is the bottleneck in the development of fuel cells, and replacing precious and nondurable Pt catalysts by the material with low cost, high activity and good stability is a main challenge. Carbon-based metal-free ORR electrocatalysts have become a promising alternative of commercial Pt/C catalyst due to their superior catalytic activity, high stability and low cost. Recent studies revealed that the doping of N, B, P or S atoms could boost the ORR electrocatalytic performance of carbon nanomaterials, and the catalytic activities were highly dependent on the doping elements, amounts and microstructures. In this study, sulfur-doped carbon nanocages (SCNCs) were synthesized by chemical vapor deposition method using in situ generated MgO as template and thiophene/benzene as precursors. The resultant SCNCs possessed high specific surface area of ca. 1000 m2·g-1, abundant pore structure and superior graphitization degree. The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy result showed sulfur atoms were doped into the carbon framework as the C―S―C moieties. The content of sulfur in the SCNCs was adjusted in the range of 0～3.45 at% by changing the amount of thiophene in the precursor. All the SCNCs samples had comparable specific surface area and similar pore structure. As an electrocatalyst for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in alkaline medium, the SCNCs exhibited a sulfur-content-dependent performance. The SCNCs with sulfur content of 0.84 at% demonstrated the optimal ORR performance. With further increasing the sulfur content, the ORR performance of the SCNCs gradually degraded and even inferior to that of the pure CNCs when the sulfur content was higher than 1.61 at%. In addition, the SCNCs showed better stability and immunity to methanol crossover than the Pt/C catalyst. This result is suggestive for designing advanced metal-free ORR electrocatalysts by regulating the species and content of dopants and doping microstructures.
