Highly Efficient Bifunctional Catalyst of NiCo2O4@NiO@Ni Core/Shell Nanocone Array for Stable Overall Water Splitting

Electrochemical splitting of water is an efficient way to produce clean energy for energy storage and conversion devices. Herein, 3D hierarchical NiCo₂O₄@NiO@Ni core/shell nanocone arrays (NAs) are reported on Ni foam for stable overall water splitting with high efficiency. The architecture and composition of the 3D catalysts are particularly tuned. The outstanding structural and component features of the as‐prepared 3D catalysts are characterized by the vertically grown NiCo₂O₄ nanocone/NiO nanosheet core/shell structure and Ni decorated 3D‐conductive networks, which largely prompt the catalytic performance. The hybrid catalyst with core/shell nanocone array structures exhibits superior bifuncational activities for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) with an overpotential of 240 and 120 mV at a current density of 10 mA cm^?2, respectively. The Tafel slope of the optimal 3D electrode is about 43 and 58 mV dec^?1 in an alkaline electrolyte for OER and HER, respectively. An alkaline electrolyzer constructed by two symmetric NiCo₂O₄@NiO@Ni electrodes delivers splendid activity toward overall water splitting with a current of 10 mA cm^?2 at only ≈1.60 V and almost no deactivation after 10 h. This work provides a promising strategy to design ternary core/shell electrodes as high performance Janus catalysts for overall water splitting.     

A Highly Effective,Stable Oxygen Evolution Catalyst Derived from Transition Metal Selenides and Phosphides

Recently, transition metal chalcogenides and phosphides have been increasingly reported as efficient and stable oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalysts in alkaline medium, despite the fact that they are thermodynamically unstable under highly oxidative potentials. Here the active forms of these materials are elucidated by synthesizing a hybrid catalyst, which has a metal chalcogenide in the form of CoSe₂ and metal phosphide in the form of CoP—CoSe₂|CoP. Both CoSe₂ and CoP in the as‐prepared catalyst are completely transformed into their respective oxyhydroxides and hydroxides, which are, in fact, the true OER‐active species in alkaline medium and not the selenide and phosphide themselves. The derived oxides from the hybrid catalyst deliver an excellent OER activity by reaching a current density of 10 mA cm⁻² at a low overpotential of 240 mV (vs reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE)) and a Tafel slope of 46.6 mV dec⁻¹. The stability of the derived oxyhydroxide/hydroxide catalyst shows no appreciable deactivation during 120 h of continuous electrolysis, displaying an extraordinary operational stability.     

Co3O4 Hollow Polyhedrons as Bifunctional Electrocatalysts for Reduction and Evolution Reactions of Oxygen

It is very important to exploit low‐cost and efficient oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts for the development of renewable‐energy conversion and storage techniques. Although much attention has been made to develop efficient catalysts for ORR and OER, it is still highly desired to create new bifunctional catalysts. In this study, Co₃O₄ hollow polyhedrons are synthesized as efficient bifunctional electrocatalysts for ORR and OER by simple one‐step annealing Co‐centered metal–organic frameworks (ZIF‐67). Due to the large specific surface areas and high porosity, the as‐prepared Co₃O₄ hollow polyhedrons exhibit excellent electrocatalytic activities for ORR and OER in alkaline media. Co₃O₄ hollow polyhedrons show higher peak current density (0.61 mA cm^?2) with four‐electron pathway than Co₃O₄ particles (0.39 mA cm^?2), better methanol tolerance and superior durability (82.6%) than commercial Pt/C electrocatalyst (58.6%) for ORR after 25 000 s. In addition, Co₃O₄ hollow polyhedrons also display excellent OER performances with smaller overpotential (536 mV) for 10 mA cm^?2 than Co₃O₄ particles (593 mV) and superior stability (86.5%) after 25 000 s. This facile one‐step strategy based on metal–organic frameworks self‐sacrificed templates can be used to develop the promising well‐defined porous hollow metal oxides electrode materials for energy conversion and storage technologies.     

A Facile Strategy to Synthesize Cobalt‐Based Self‐Supported Material for Electrocatalytic Water Splitting

Designing and developing active, robust, and noble‐metal‐free catalysts with superior stability for electrocatalytic water splitting is of critical importance but remains a grand challenge. Here, a facile strategy is provided to synthesize a series of Co‐based self‐supported electrode materials by combining electrospinning and chemical vapor deposition (CVD) technologies. The Co, Co₃O₄, Co₉S₈ nanoparticles (NPs) are formed in situ simultaneously with the formation of carbon nanofibers (CNFs) during the CVD process, respectively. The Co‐based NPs are uniformly distributed through the CNFs and they can be directly used as the electrode materials for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in acid and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in alkaline. The Co₉S₈/CNFs membrane exhibits the best HER activity with overpotential of 165 mV at j = 10 mA cm^?2 and Tafel slope of 83 mV dec^?1 and OER activity with overpotential of 230 mV at j = 10 mA cm^?2 and Tafel slope of 72 mV dec^?1. The onion‐like graphitic layers formed around the NPs not only improve the electrical conductivity of the electrode but also prevent the separation of the NPs from the carbon matrix as well as the aggregation.     

调控氧空位实现高比表面积Co3O4纳米片上的产氧反应

Electrochemical water splitting requires efficient water oxidation catalysts to accelerate the sluggish kinetics of water oxidation reaction. Here, we designed an efficient Co₃O₄ electrocatalyst using a pyrolysis strategy for oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Morphological characterization confirmed the ultra-thin structure of nanosheet. Further, the existence of oxygen vacancies was obviously evidenced by the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and electron spin resonance spectroscopy. The increased surface area of Co₃O₄ ensures more exposed sites, whereas generated oxygen vacancies on Co₃O₄ surface create more active defects. The two scenarios were beneficial for accelerating the OER across the interface between the anode and electrolyte. As expected, the optimized Co₃O₄ nanosheets can catalyze the OER efficiently with a low overpotential of 310 mV at current density of 10 mA/cm² and remarkable long-term stability in 1.0 mol/L KOH.

NiWO3 Nanoparticles Grown on Graphitic Carbon Nitride (g‐C3N4) Supported Toray Carbon as an Efficient Bifunctional Electrocatalyst for Oxygen and Hydrogen Evolution Reactions

Catalysts for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) are at the heart of water oxidation reactions. Despite continuous efforts, the development of OER/HER electrocatalysts with high activity at low cost remains a big challenge. Herein, a composite material consisting of TC@WO₃@g‐C₃N₄@Ni‐NiO complex matrix as a bifunctional electrocatalyst for the OER and HER is described. Though the catalyst has modest activity for HER, it exhibits high OER activity thereby making it a better nonprecious electrocatalyst for both OER and HER and is further improved by g‐C₃N₄. The catalytic activity arises from the synergetic effects between WO₃, Ni‐NiO, and g‐C₃N₄. A Ni‐NiO alloy and WO₃ nanoparticles decorated on the g‐C₃N₄ surface supported toray carbon (TC) matrix (TC@WO₃@g‐C₃N₄@Ni‐NiO) by a facile route that show an excellent and durable bifunctional catalytic activity for OER and HER in the alkaline medium are developed. This carbon nitride with binary metal/metal‐oxide matrix supported with TC exhibit an overpotential of 0.385 and 0.535 V versus RHE at a current density of 10 mA cm^?2 (Tafel slopes of 0.057 and 0.246 V dec^?1 for OER and HER, respectively), in 0.1 m NaOH . The catalyst is tested in water electrolysis for 17 h.     

Ultrathin Fe‐N‐C Nanosheets Coordinated Fe‐Doped CoNi Alloy Nanoparticles for Electrochemical Water Splitting

The development of highly active and cost‐effective catalyst materials toward electrochemical water splitting is of great importance for converting and storing the intermittent solar energy in the form of hydrogen. Herein, for the first time, an ultrathin Fe and N‐co‐doped carbon nanosheet encapsulated Fe‐doped CoNi alloy nanoparticle (FeCoNi@FeNC) composite is obtained and applied as a bifunctional catalyst for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER). This catalyst exhibits prominent catalytic performances for both HER and OER, which only requires overpotentials of 102 and 330 mV, respectively, to reach a current density of 10 mA cm^?2 in alkaline media. The high catalytic activity is intrinsically associated with the presence of Fe in both nanosheets and nanoparticles, which has triggered the occurrence of coordinative effects between Fe‐N‐C and FeCoNi that are beneficial for HER and OER, as revealed by electrochemical techniques. In an overall water splitting electrolyzer, FeCoNi@FeNC is employed as both the cathode and anode catalysts, achieving 12 mA cm^?2 at 1.63 V for a duration of more than 12 h.

Spinel MnCo₂O₄ nanoparticles on nitrogen‐doped reduced graphene oxide (MnCo₂O₄/NGr) are synthesized for advanced zinc–air batteries with remarkable cyclic efficiency and stability. The synthesized MnCo₂O₄/NGr exhibits good oxygen‐reduction reaction (ORR) activity with half‐wave potential E _1/2 of 0.85 V (vs reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE)), comparable to commercial Pt/C with E _1/2 of 0.88 V (vs RHE) along with superior oxygen electrode activity ΔE = 0.91 V for the ORR/OER (oxygen‐evolution reaction) in alkaline media. Durability tests confirm that MnCo₂O₄/NGr is more stable than Pt/C in alkaline environment. MnCo₂O₄/NGr functions with stable discharge profile of 1.2 V at 20 mA cm^?2, large discharge capacity of 707 mAh g^?1_Zn at 40 mA cm^?2 and a high energy density of 813 Wh kg^?1_Zn in a mechanically rechargeable zinc–air battery. The electrically rechargeable MnCo₂O₄/NGr zinc–air battery displays hybrid behavior with both Faradaic and oxygen redox charge–discharge characteristics, operating at higher voltage and providing higher power density and excellent cyclic efficiency of 86% for over 100 cycles compared to Pt/C with efficiency of around 60%. Moreover, hybrid zinc–air battery operates with a stable and energy efficient profile at different current densities.     

Ultrasound assisted synthesis of highly active nanoflower-like CoMoS4 electrocatalyst for oxygen and hydrogen evolution reactions

Rapid technological development requires sustainable, pure, and clean energy systems, such as hydrogen energy. It is difficult to fabricate efficient, highly active, and inexpensive electrocatalysts for the overall water splitting reaction: the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). The present research work deals with a simple hydrothermal synthesis route assisted with ultrasound that was used to fabricate a 3D nanoflower-like porous CoMoS₄ electrocatalyst. A symmetric electrolyzer cell was fabricated using a CoMoS₄ electrode as both the anode and cathode, with a cell voltage of 1.51 V, to obtain a current density of 10 mA/cm². Low overpotentials were observed for the CoMoS₄ electrode (250 mV for OER and 141 mV for HER) at a current density of 10 mA/cm².
