The CoP@NiCoO bi-functional electrocatalyst was fabricated for hydrogen evolution reaction and oxygen evolution reaction in acidic, neutral and alkaline media. The CoP@NiCoO in alkaline media exhibites an extremely low overpotential of 170 mV in oxygen evolution to achieve a current density of 10 mA cm and produces stable water splitting nearly 30 h. The anchored-CoP can enhance the electrochemical performance of pristine NiCoO as well as increase the tolerance in acidic media of NiCoO. Additional, the CoP is oxidized to oxides/hydroxides species during the electrocatalytic reaction, which acts as the active centers of the electrocatalysis. The CoP@NiCoO catalyst can be used as an effective bifunctional synergistic center in a wide range of pH values (from 0 to 14).
CoP@NiCoO 双功能电催化剂被制备用于在酸性、中性和碱性介质中的析氢反应和析氧反应。在碱性介质中,CoP@NiCoO 表现出极低的析氧过电位 170 mV,实现了 10 mA cm 的电流密度,并稳定地进行近 30 h 的水分解。锚定的 CoP 可以增强原始 NiCoO 的电化学性能,并增加 NiCoO 在酸性介质中的耐受性。此外,在电催化反应过程中,CoP 被氧化为氧化物/氢氧化物物种,这些物种充当电催化的活性中心。CoP@NiCoO 催化剂可以作为一个有效的双功能协同中心,在很宽的 pH 值范围(从 0 到 14)内使用。
