Preparation of nanohybrid electrocatalyst based on reduced graphene oxide sheets decorated with Pt nanoparticles for hydrogen evolution reaction

Enhanced electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution by molybdenum disulfide nanodots anchored on MXene under alkaline conditions

“…8 Platinum and its derivatives till now are still the most common HER catalysts, both under acidic and alkaline conditions. 9,10 Considering the scarcity of noble-metal catalysts, the development of sustainable catalysts with low cost and abundance has been the focus of intensive research efforts. 11 The concentration of hydrogen ions in alkaline medium is $8 to 14 orders of magnitude lower than that in acidic medium, resulting in the drawbacks of sluggish water adsorption and poor dissociation dynamics during water splitting.…”
