[Display omitted] Multinary metal sulfides (MMSs) are highly suitable candidates for the application of electrocatalysis as they offer numerous parameters for optimizing the electronic structure and catalytic sites. Herein, a stable nanoarchitecture consisting of MMSs ((NiCoCrMnFe)S x) nanoparticles embedded in S, N-codoped carbon (SNC) layers derived from metal organic framework (MOF) and supported on carbonized wood fibers (CWF) was fabricated by directly carbonization. Benefiting from this carbon-coated configuration, along with the synergistic effects within multinary metal systems, (NiCoCrMnFe)S x @SNC/CWF delivers an exceptionally low overpotential of 260 mV at a high current density of 1000 mA cm−2, a small Tafel slope of 48.5 mV dec−1, and robust electrocatalytic stability. Furthermore, the (NiCoCrMnFe)S x @SNC/CWF used as the cathode of rechargeable Zn-air batteries demonstrates higher power density and remarkable durability, surpassing that of commercial RuO 2. Thus, we showcase the feasibility and advantages of employing highly efficient and durable MMSs materials for low-cost and sustainable energy conversion. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
