“…The binding energy difference of 17.76 eV corresponds to the existence of Ni 2+ . 36 The binding energy peaks suggest that nickel has been found in the form of Ni 2+ state and predicted the deconvolution with nitrogen electronic levels and produced the nickel coordination at the nitrogen nodes. 37,38 The peaks at 860.81 and 879.20 eV are satellite peaks, possibly due to some environmental and linker impacts during the synthesis process.…”

Numerous synthesis strategies have been adopted to promote the electrocatalytic behavior of electrocatalysts for water splitting. Suitable conditions can effectively influence and enhance the electrocatalytic activity. Oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) activities of the Ni 4g ZIF structure have been characterized at various temperatures. Elevating the temperature removed the energy barriers from the surface of the electrocatalysts. Higher electrical conductivity and increased temperature promoted the adsorption and desorption processes of active atoms on the electrocatalyst surface, which enhanced the electrocatalytic activity of the Ni 4g ZIF structure. The Ni 4g ZIF structure showed an overpotential of 224 mV at 80 °C to approach a current density of 10 mA cm −2 for the OER process. The Ni 4g ZIF structure exhibits a good Tafel slope of 78 mV dec −1 with a turnover frequency of 314.80 ms −1 for the OER process. Similarly, the Ni 4g ZIF structure exhibits an overpotential of 184 mV at 25 °C, which was improved to 82 mV at 80 °C for the HER process. The Ni 4g ZIF structure exhibits a good Tafel slope of 83 mV dec −1 at 80 °C for the HER process. The intralayer spacing of the Ni 4g ZIF structure was increased during stability tests at higher temperatures. UV−visible measurements of supernatant solutions did not show any leaching and colloidal particles after stability tests in 1 M KOH. Results indicate that the Ni 4g ZIF structure exhibits good electrocatalytic behavior at suitable conditions for water splitting.
