Iron and nitrogen co-doped carbon spheres (Fe-N/CS) catalysts were prepared from iron nitrate nonahydrate by electrospinning and thermal treatment. The effect of different iron contents on the morphology and performance of the catalyst was explored by changing the amount of iron precursor. And the relationship between its structure and the oxygen reduction activity was also discussed. The results showed that there is an optimal content for the iron. When the iron content was 0.18% (Fe-N/CS0.18), the initial and half-wave potential of the catalyst were 0.970 V and 0.842 V, which are the best result among the FeN/CS catalysts. Compared with that for commercial Pt/C, the Fe-N/CS-0.18 even showed a better ORR catalytic performance. The current retention of the Fe-N/CS-0.18 was 90.6% after continuous operation for 10000 s, which is better than that for commercial Pt/C(84.2%). Additionally, the methanol tolerance of Fe-N/CS-0.18 is better than that of the commercial Pt/C. The current density percentage of Fe-N/CS-0.18 has slightly decrease after the addition of methanol at 500 s. However, the commercial Pt/C decreases sharply. This was attributed to the abundant active nitrogen (pyridine nitrogen and pyrrole nitrogen) and suitable iron content in Fe-N/CS-0.18, which easily promote the oxygen reduction reaction.
