Article Synopsis
  • Electrolysis of water is a clean and efficient method to produce hydrogen, but its effectiveness is limited by the slow oxygen evolution reaction (OER).
  • The study focuses on creating efficient and low-cost OER catalysts, specifically an Ir-doped CoP/FeP catalyst grown on nickel foam, which enhances catalytic activity.
  • The optimized catalyst shows impressive performance with a low overpotential and minimal voltage requirement for overall water splitting, maintaining functionality for over 70 hours.

By utilizing Metal-organic framework (MOF) materials as a base, constructing electrocatalysts with heterogeneous structures offers advantages for catalyzing water splitting. In this study, a hollow heterogeneous nanocatalyst, Ir-MIL-88A@NiFe-LDHs, was prepared by growing a layered double hydroxides (LDHs) shell on MIL-88A substrate. The catalyst shows excellent oxygen evolution reaction (OER) performance in a 1.

2D nanodendrites (NDs) and nanosheets (NSs) have been regarded as efficient nanocatalysts for enhancing the electrocatalytic performance due to their low coordinated sites and abundant electrocatalytic centers. Nevertheless, it remains challenging to construct advanced NDs and NSs in a single reaction system. Herein, by tuning the volume ratios of mixed solvents, the reduction and diffusion rate of Sn on Pd NSs template was rationally controlled to prepare PdSn NDs and PdSn NSs.

The fabrication of hollow nanoelectrocatalysts with multilayered heterogeneous interfaces, derived from metal-organic framework (MOF) materials, represents a highly efficient strategy that promotes the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Within this research, we successfully synthesized a hollow nanobox of Ir-doped ZIF-67@CoFe PBA with bilayer heterointerfaces. The distinctive structure of Ir-ZIF-67@CoFe PBA provides a substantial number of active sites for reaction intermediates, resulting in improved utilization of precious metals.
