Three-dimensional lily-like CoNi2S4 as an advanced bifunctional electrocatalyst for hydrogen and oxygen evolution reaction

doi:10.1016/S1872-2067(18)63053-0

Abstract

Abstract:

Designing low-cost, highly efficient, and stable bifunctional electrocatalysts for both hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is of vital significance for water splitting. Herein, three-dimensional lily-like CoNi₂S₄ supported on nickel foam (CoNi₂S₄/Ni) has been fabricated by sulfuration of the Co-Ni precursor. As expected, CoNi₂S₄/Ni possesses such outstanding electrocatalytic properties that it requires an overpotential of only 54 mV at 10 mA cm^-2 and 328 mV at 100 mA cm^-2 for HER and OER, respectively. Furthermore, by utilizing the CoNi₂S₄/Ni electrodes as bifunctional electrocatalysts for overall water splitting, a current density of 10 mA cm^-2 can be obtained at a voltage of only 1.56 V.

Key words: Bifunctional electrocatalyst, Hydrogen evolution reaction, Oxygen evolution reaction, Lily-like CoNi₂S₄, Overall water splitting
