Ni–Mo–O nanorod-derived composite catalysts for efficient alkaline water-to-hydrogen conversion via urea electrolysis

TL;DR: In this paper, a porous rod-like NiMoO4 with high oxidation states of the metal elements enabling highly efficient UOR electrocatalysis, which can be readily produced through annealing solid NiMo4·xH2O as a starting precursor in Ar. This precursor gives the derived Ni/NiO/MoOx nanocomposite when switching the shielding gas from Ar to H2/Ar, exhibiting platinum-like activity for the hydrogen evolution reaction in alkaline electrolytes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Flexible all-solid-state high-power supercapacitor fabricated with nitrogen-doped carbon nanofiber electrode material derived from bacterial cellulose

TL;DR: In this article, a flexible all-solid-state supercapacitor with nitrogen-doped pyrolyzed bacterial cellulose (p-BC-N) as the electrode material via a low-cost, eco-friendly, low-temperature, and scalable fabrication hydrothermal synthesis is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clean and Affordable Hydrogen Fuel from Alkaline Water Splitting: Past, Recent Progress, and Future Prospects.

TL;DR: In this article, the historic development of water electrolysis is overviewed, and several critical electrochemical parameters are discussed, particularly focusing on catalyst synthesis, activity and stability challenges, performance improvement, and industry relevant developments.
Journal ArticleDOI

"Superaerophobic" Nickel Phosphide Nanoarray Catalyst for Efficient Hydrogen Evolution at Ultrahigh Current Densities.

TL;DR: A Ni2P nanoarray catalyst grown on a commercial Ni foam substrate demonstrates an outstanding electrocatalytic activity and stability in basic electrolyte, and highlights that an aerophobic structure is essential to catalyze gas evolution for large-scale practical applications.
Journal ArticleDOI

Scaled-Up Synthesis of Amorphous NiFeMo Oxides and Their Rapid Surface Reconstruction for Superior Oxygen Evolution Catalysis.

TL;DR: This work reports the first scalable synthesis of amorphous NiFeMo oxide (up to 515 grams one batch) with homogeneous elemental distribution via a facile supersaturated co-precipitation method, which opens up the potential of fast, facile and scale-up production ofAmorphous metal oxides for high-performance OER catalysts.
