Anchoring MoS₂on an ethanol-etched Prussian blue analog for enhanced electrocatalytic efficiency for the oxygen evolution reaction

Abstract

Controllable defects and interface engineering are perceived as promising routes for developing efficient noble-metal-free electrocatalysts for oxygen evolution reaction (OER), the bottleneck of overall water splitting. Herein, we prepared molybdenum...

UiO-66-Derived PBA Composite as Multifunctional Electrochemical Non-Enzymatic Sensor Realizing High-Performance Detection of Hydrogen Peroxide and Glucose

“… Their CV curves were obtained at different scan rates in the potential range of −0.15 to −0.05 V in the non-Faradaic interval. As shown in Figure S19, the ECSA value for PBA/UiO-66/NF is obviously larger than those for UiO-66/NF and PBA/NF, suggesting that the increased ECSA is one of the important reasons for the improved electrochemical performance because a larger ECSA result means more active sites …”

“…As shown in Figure S19, the ECSA value for PBA/ UiO-66/NF is obviously larger than those for UiO-66/NF and PBA/NF, suggesting that the increased ECSA is one of the important reasons for the improved electrochemical performance because a larger ECSA result means more active sites. 61 Then, the electrochemical impedance spectrum (EIS) is tested to further evaluate the catalytic activity of electrodes. EIS is considered to be a powerful parameter to evaluate the electrode kinetics during the electrocatalytic reaction.…”

Electron-transfer enhancement of urchin-like CoP–Ce2(CO3)2O/NF as an ultra-stable bifunctional catalyst for efficient overall water splitting

“…5 Nevertheless, commercial catalysts are typically made with noble metals, which are expensive and scarce for extensive applications. 6,7 Consequently, exploring more efficient, cost-effective, and abundant non-precious metal-based catalysts with superior activity and stability is necessary. [8][9][10] Various transition metal composites have been found to be promising candidates due to their low cost, abundant earth reserves and high electrocatalytic activity.…”

Compositing redox-rich Co–Co@Ni–Fe PBA nanocubes into cauliflower-like conducting polypyrrole as an electrode material in supercapacitors

“…4,[16][17][18][19][20] On the other hand, most PBAs have low electrical conductivity, a short cycle life, and poor stability in alkaline and neutral solutions, preventing them from achieving the desired energy/power densities. 21,22 Mainly, the electrochemical stability deteriorates with increasing cycles due to the rapid redox reactions at the electrode-electrolyte interface. Integrating PBAs with conducting polymers has been proposed as an effective way to overcome these challenges.…”
