This work is dedicated to exploring efficient and stable POM@MOF catalysts, and a major breakthrough has been achieved mainly by constructing unique structures and doping heteroatomic strategies to enhance electrolytic HER performance, thus improve the efficiency of hydrogen production. However, as this research is concerned with the electrolysis of fresh water, this hydrogen production technology consumes a large amount of fresh water resources, which severely restricts the industrialization of electrolytic water for hydrogen production. Therefore, future work should explore hydrogen precipitation catalysts applied to electrolysis of seawater or wastewater from the perspective of environmental protection and resource conservation.Besides, based on the exposed metal active sites of POMs are proven to be the key hub of catalysis, researchers should therefore combine density flooding theory calculations to deduce the relationship between the charge density distribution on the catalyst active sites and the d-band center displacement, and preferably select the most favorable structure for the adsorption of reaction intermediates, and based on which the structure of POM@MOF-based catalysts should be skillfully designed.
