Self-supported Ni/NiO heterostructures with a controlled reduction protocol for enhanced industrial alkaline hydrogen evolution†
Abstract
Self-supported Ni/NiO heterostructures with controllable ratios used in industrial alkaline water electrolysis (AWE) systems lead to an ultralow voltage of 1.79 V at 400 mA cm−2 for 2 weeks, ascribed to the synergic combination of abundant active sites, rapid electron/mass transfer and optimal HER kinetics.
