Abstract

Transition metal phosphides are promising candidates for alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), but the activation of H2O molecule is deficient. We adopt an interface engineering strategy to synthesize a hierarchical FeNiP/MoOx integrated electrode with multi-interface grown on monocrystalline NiMoO4 nanorods. Such catalyst exhibits remarkable alkaline HER performance with a low overpotential of 97 mV at the current density of 100 mA cm(-2) and sustainable durability over 20 h. Experimental and theoretical results reveal that interfaces among Fe2P, Ni5P4, and MoOx can efficiently activate H2O molecules and facilitate H desorption. Moreover, employing FeNiP/MoOx/NiMoO4/NF as a cathode, the cell voltage as low as 1.62 V to achieve a current density of 100 mA cm(-2), with admirable durability over 20 h for alkaline water splitting (1.0 M NaOH + 0.5 M NaCl). This work offers a new avenue to rationally design a 3D robust, cost-effective catalyst with multi-interface for large-scale practical hydrogen production.
