The sandwich-structured nanocomposite of α-ZrP/CoTMPyP [5, 10, 15, 20-tetrakis (N-methylpyridinium-4-yl) porphyrinato cobalt (III)] was fabricated via electrostatic interaction between cobalt porphyrin and α-ZrP nanosheets. The obtained material was used as a modifier on the glassy carbon electrode (GCE) to test the electrocatalytic performance toward oxygen reduction, the results indicated that dioxygen was reduced to H<sub>2</sub>O<sub>2</sub> via two-electron transfer.
