Abstract:
We report the combination of electrospinning and calcination to synthesize many free-standing electrocatalytic electrodes made of nanostructured nickel particles (active sites) and three-dimensional carbon microfibers (support). Precisely, we have used five different nickel precursors to elucidate the nitrogen origin (polyacrylonitrile or metal salts) and the impact on the electrocatalytic properties.
