Andreas Friedrich Contact information: Marek Mooste (marek.mooste@ut.ee) Institute of Chemistry University of Tartu Ravila 14a 50411 Tartu Estonia This dataset contains the data presented in the figures of published paper "Fe, Co, and ZIF-8 co-doped catalysts with carbon nanotubes and a SiOC composite backbone for high-temperature PEM fuel cell cathodes" Journal of Materials Chemistry A xx xxx (https://doi.org/10.1039/D6TA01012A). The electrochemical characterisation data, which was measured in DLR Institute of Engineering Thermodynamics, Oldenburg, Germany, is for Figures 6-9 and the nomenclature of the catalysts is the same as in the mentioned article. Data was collected using the following instruments: Autolab potentiostat/galvanostat PGSTAT204 equipped with RRDE Rotator and Motor Controller (Metrohm) controlled with NOVA version 2.1 software (Figure 6); potentiostat Modulab2100A (Ametek) equipped with an external booster (12 V/20 A) (Figures 7-8); GDE single cell FlexCell® PTFE (Gaskatel) setup (Figures 7-8); HT-PEM single cell test station from Inhouse Engineering equipped with a quickCONNECTfixture (qCF 5/100 HT, balticFuelCells) (Figure 9). For Figures 6, 7, 9 electrochemical data, the currents have been converted from current (A) to current densities (mA/cm2). For Figure 6, the background currents, measured in Ar-saturated solution, have been subtracted, in addition to conversion to current densities.
