A Study on the Synthesis of 3D Transition Metal-based Nanostructured Catalysts for Electrochemical Water Splitting

We have successfully produced catalysts using atomic structure/core-shell nanostructures combined with shape regulating engineering to create special nanoarchitectures. The synergistic effects of active materials were responsible for the modulation of electronic structure and enhanced electroactive sites. Catalysts with uniform structure, good reproducibility, homogeneous transducer coverage, and ease of mass production prepared over the desired region. RuSAs-MoS2-Mo2C/TiN/CC were close to 1.5 V at 10 mA cm-2 in 1.0 M KOH. The catalysts exhibited high activity and long-term durability toward both HER and OER in alkaline solution, superior to other synthesized materials.
