Abstract

To realize large-scale hydrogen production by electrolysis of water, it is essential to develop non-precious metal catalysts for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Here, we fabricate Sn-, Fe-, and Co-based sulfide/oxyhydroxide heterostructural catalyst on nickel foam (FeSnCo0.2SxOy/NF) by solvothermal method. The FeSnCo0.2SxOy/NF requires low overpotentials of 48 and 186 mV at 10 mA·cm–2, respectively, for HER and OER. When it is assembled into an electrolytic cell as a bifunctional electrocatalyst, it only needs 1.54 V to reach 10 mA·cm–2, far better than IrO2||Pt/C electrolyzer. The formation of sulfide/hydroxide heterostructural interfaces improves the electron transfer and reduces the reaction energy barrier, thus promoting the electrocatalytic processes.

Graphical Abstract

Sn-, Fe-, and Co-based sulfide/oxyhydroxide heterostructural catalyst on nickel foam (FeSnCo0.2SxOy/NF) has good bifunctional activity with low overpotential (η10) values of 186 and 48 mV for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), respectively. In addition, the FeSnCo0.2SxOy||FeSnCo0.2SxOy cell requires only 1.54 V to reach 10 mA·cm−2, which is significantly better than IrO2||Pt/C.
