Nanosheet-assembled transition metal sulfides nanoflowers derived from CoMo-MOF for efficient oxygen evolution reaction
Oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is a multi-electron transfer process, whose intrinsic sluggish dynamic restricts the whole process of overall water splitting (OWS). To address this issue, a porous transition metal sulfide (TMS) catalyst with rich heterojunctions was prepared by vulcanization and trace Fe doping of CoMo-based metal–organic framework (MOF). In this work, the nanoflower composed of ultrathin 2D nanosheets anchored on a nickel foam presents a layered interface that contributes to the exposure of active regions. The resulting electrode denoted as Fe@CoMo 2 S 4 /Ni 3 S 2 /NF required a low overpotential (η 10 = 167 mV @ 10 mA cm −2 , η 50 = 260 mV @ 50 mA cm −2 ) in 1.0 M KOH for OER and a small cell voltage (E = 1.513 V @ 10 mA cm −2 ) to power OWS when coupled with commercial Pt/C. It also exhibited splendid morphological and chemical stability with virtually invariant polarization curve and flower-like appearance after 1000 CV cycles, as well as long-term durability over 100 h with a constant current density of 10 mA cm −2 . This work revealed the multi-anionic regulation mechanism in the surface reconstruction of sulfide electrocatalysts, and verified that Co/Mo/Ni-based oxysulfide was the true active substance of OER, which inspired the understanding and design of multi-anionic regulated electrocatalysts.
