Abstract:
The construction of low-cost oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts with high activity and good durability is a considerable challenge for facilitating the efficient utilization of green energy. Herein, the prism-like materials of institute lavoisier frameworks-88 (MIL-88) was first synthesized by a hydrothermal method. Then, Co-Ni layered double hydroxides (CoNi-LDHs) nanosheets were directly wrapped on the MIL-88 surface by electrodeposition to form core-shell MIL-88@CoNi-LDHs composites. Due to the distinct structure and synergistic effect between the MIL-88 core and CoNi-LDHs shell, it was found that MIL-88@CoNi-LDHs had outstanding OER activity with a small Tafel slope (45.55 mV dec-1), low overpotential (314 mV) at 10 mA cm-2, and superior durability. This study provides a prospective pathway to exploit highly efficient low-cost electrocatalysts for OER.
