Co- and defect-rich carbon nanofiber films as a highly efficient electrocatalyst for oxygen reduction

•Co- and defect-rich carbon nanofibers were prepared by a simple design strategy.•The catalyst showed enhanced oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) activity in base media.•High Co mass ratio, Co-pyridinic Nx, and C-N sites provide active sites for ORR.•The catalyst exhibited higher durability than Pt/C i...
