Abstract:
Due to the slow kinetics of the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), designing an efficient and stable electrocatalyst is crucial for improving the overall water decomposition efficiency. In this study, a hollow nanotube NiSe2/MoSe2/NiMoO4@CoSe2-NC encapsulated by CoSe2-embedded Ndoped carbon dodecahedral particles was successfully designed and synthesized through structural engineering, heteroatom doping strategies, and selenization reactions. The unique heterostructure formed by integrating the hollow nanotubes architecture with dodecahedral particles provides abundant active sites, thereby accelerating the water electrolysis reaction kinetics. Furthermore, NiSe2/MoSe2/NiMoO4@CoSe2-NC demonstrates superior bifunctional performance in alkaline media (1.0 M KOH), achieving low overpotentials of 101 mV for HER and 264 mV for OER at 10 mA cm- 2, with corresponding Tafel slopes of 63.1 and 58.8 mV dec- 1, respectively. When employed in a two-electrode alkaline electrolyzer assembled with this catalyst, a cell voltage of only 1.55 V is required to deliver a current density of 10 mA cm-2. At high current density, it surpasses the benchmark RuO2|| Pt/C system in both performance and cost while maintaining excellent stability.
