The design of high performance, stable and cost-effective eletrocatalyst for oxygen evolution is crucial for the H2 production from electrochemical water splitting. Here, dual-functional-site catalyst, cobalt-chromium layer double hydroxide (CoCr LDH) nanosheets are designed and synthesized , where the Co 2+ is the catalytic active site and Cr 3+ is the charge transfer site.It's for the first time for OER investigation of CoCr LDH. The CoCr LDH nanosheets have high specific surface area of 151.78 m 2 g -1 and exhibit outstanding OER activities, among the best of Co-based candidates. Accordingly, our catalyst affords a low onset potential of 1.47 V (vs. reversible hydrogen electrode, RHE) and a stable current density of 22.8 mA cm -2 at 1.61 V (vs. RHE) for 12 h. The Tafel slope of CoCr LDH is 81.0 mV dec -1 , smaller than that of state-of-the-art RuO2 (90.1 mV dec -1 ). Therefore, the CoCr LDH nanosheets are promising OER catalysts.
