Abstract

One of the most important and fundamental challenges for the production of hydrogen through seawater electrolysis is constructing strong and high-activity oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalysts. In this paper, Fe-doped Co₄S₃/Ni₃S₂ (Fe-Co₄S₃/Ni₃S₂) composite was prepared by a one-step hydrothermal method. The doped Fe in Co₄S₃/Ni₃S₂ composite modifies the electronic structure and promotes electron transfer, leading to improved OER performance in alkaline freshwater and seawater. At 100 mA/cm⁻², Fe-Co₄S₃/Ni₃S₂ exhibits low overpotentials of 329 and 361 mV in alkaline freshwater and seawater, respectively. In particular, the overpotential in alkaline freshwater is reduced by 85 mV compared to the Co₄S₃/Ni₃S₂, and 112 and 145 mV compared to single-phase Co₄S₃ and Ni₃S₂. Additionally, the Fe-Co₄S₃/Ni₃S₂ can operate steadily at 100 mA cm⁻² for at least 100 h in alkaline seawater. The current study provides a facile method for preparation of efficient OER catalysts of sulfides by Fe doping in composite.

期刊介绍： The Journal of Electroanalytical Chemistry is the foremost international journal devoted to the interdisciplinary subject of electrochemistry in all its aspects, theoretical as well as applied. Electrochemistry is a wide ranging area that is in a state of continuous evolution. Rather than compiling a long list of topics covered by the Journal, the editors would like to draw particular attention to the key issues of novelty, topicality and quality. Papers should present new and interesting electrochemical science in a way that is accessible to the reader. The presentation and discussion should be at a level that is consistent with the international status of the Journal. Reports describing the application of well-established techniques to problems that are essentially technical will not be accepted. Similarly, papers that report observations but fail to provide adequate interpretation will be rejected by the Editors. Papers dealing with technical electrochemistry should be submitted to other specialist journals unless the authors can show that their work provides substantially new insights into electrochemical processes.
