The introduction of local tensile strain in Ni(OH) nanosheets accelerates the Ni(OH)-to-NiOOH transition and boosts the electrocatalytic ammonia oxidation reaction (EAOR), , reducing the onset potential by 80 mV, doubling both the current density and N faradaic efficiency, and enabling 1000 hours of operation at 160 mA cm.
