Cobalt phosphides embedded in electrocatalysts with low Co/P ratio have recently garnered a great deal of attention due to their high catalytic activities. However, compared to the studies on Co2P and CoP based catalysts, the studies on facile and controllable synthesis of CoP2 based catalysts are few. Herein, two types of cobalt phosphides embedded in 3D carbon nanohybrids (CoPx-N-C) with controllable Co/P ratio were developed via a facile one-step phosphidation-carbonization using a cobalt centered metal-organic framework, ZIF-67, as building block. Based on the high affinity between chloramphenicol (CAP) and cobalt phosphide, the as-prepared CoPx-N-C hybrids were further utilized as electrode components in electrocatalytic determination of CAP in milk and honey. The abundant cobalt phosphide component exhibits high affinity to CAP thus favors its adsorption and facilitates the followed redox reaction. The P-rich CoP2-N-C shows better performance than the metal-rich CoP-N-C in CAP detection, owing to its better electro-activity. The developed CoP2-N-C based sensor exhibits good analytical performance with low detection limit of 0.044 μM (signal-to-noise ratio, S/N = 3) and wide linear range (0.2∼40 μM and 40∼200 μM). The proposed sensor was also applied in the analyses of spiked milk and honey samples, demonstrating its feasibility in CAP analysis.

The construction of efficient and nonprecious cocatalysts, along with the establishment of rapid interfacial charge migration pathways to host semiconductors, is a major process in enhancing photocatalytic water splitting performance and remains a formidable challenge. Herein, the composition of CoP/CoO cocatalysts on g-C3N4 is regulated through phosphating for efficient and stable H2 evolution. Comprehensive analyses reveal that the CoO nanocrystals, possessing a bandgap of 1.95 eV, are uniformly loaded onto g-C3N4 with a portion undergoing an in situ transformation to metallic CoP, thereby forming a well-defined interfacial energy level structure for carrier separation. Moreover, the CoP/CoO cocatalysts exhibited a lower hydrogen adsorption Gibbs free energy (ΔGH) than that of the mono CoP or CoO. The optimal CoP/CoO/g-C3N4 exhibits an attractive and stable rate of solar-driven H2 evolution at 0.86 mmol·g–1·h–1, surpassing the rates of CoO/g-C3N4 and Pt/g-C3N4 by 30 and 1.5 times, respectively. The dual-driven interfaces of CoP/CoO/g-C3N4 provide a 2-fold acceleration for directional carrier transfer, in conjunction with accelerated surface reaction kinetics, resulting in efficient and stable H2 evolution. This scalable strategy, focusing interfacial engineering for rapid carrier transfer, offers a novel perspective in the design of highly active cocatalysts to boost the photocatalytic application.

The rational construction of high-efficiency transition metal phosphides catalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is crucial since their sluggish kinetics of water dissociation remain severe barriers for HER performance. The theoretical calculations indicate a unique adsorption-diffusion-decomposition mechanism for H 2 O molecules on CoP (111) surface. Herein, Fe could decrease H 2 O decomposition barrier energies and increase the amount of active sites, along with Cr could accelerate H 2 O adsorption, diffusion and increase the conductivity of the reaction surface. Aided by this mechanism, a self-supported electrode of Cr and Fe dual-doped CoP nanorod arrays grown on nickel foam was prepared. The electrode only requires an overpotential of 27 mV at 10 mA cm −2 for alkaline HER with excellent durability for 400 h. Moreover, the catalyst presents only 1.505 V at 10 mA cm −2 for alkaline water electrolysis. This work provides an in-depth understanding on catalytic mechanism of CoP-based materials.

Herein, we report an efficient bottom-up approach to construct the carbon encapsulated CoP nanoarray-like architectures onto the nitrogen-doped Ti 3 C 2 MXene Pt-based catalyst (Pt–CoP@CNT NA/N–Ti 3 C 2 ) by employing metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) as the sacrificial template. Benefiting from the catalytic effect for metals into MOFs and synergistic effect of Ti 3 C 2 substrate, homogenous nanotubes nanoarray-like structure is obtained on Ti 3 C 2 nanosheet . The unique heteroatom-doped 3D connected structure endows the catalyst with distinct structural merits, such as the carbon and nitrogen-enriched structures, large specific surface areas and excellent conductivity, leading to the high dispersion of ultrafine metallic Pt and efficient electronic/mass transfer, contributing to more exposed active sites of Pt surface. The fabricated CoP and doped nitrogen especially for those lattice nitrogen derived from the pristine MOFs can present exceptional co-catalytic effect, resulting in obtaining strong anti-CO poisoning capacity for catalyst. Therefore, the ultrahigh catalytic activity of per Pt active site for methanol oxidation reaction can be preserved. Besides, owing to the strong stability of carrier, the catalyst delivers a reliable long-term stability during the test. This work gives new ideal for the design of novel cost-effective 3D Ti 3 C 2 -based nanomaterial catalyst with excellent catalytic activity for methanol oxidation.

The generation of hydrogen (H 2 ) through photocatalytic water splitting with the employment of various co-catalysts has attracted much attention. In this study, the CoP was successfully decorated on Zn 0.5 Cd 0.5 S as a highly efficient co-catalyst via a two-step in-situ chemical deposition method. The chemical as well as photophysical properties of the as-obtained CoP/Zn 0.5 Cd 0.5 S samples were characterized by X-ray diffractometry (XRD), Transmission electron microscope (TEM), UV–vis diffusion reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and surface photovoltage spectroscopy (SPV). The CoP/Zn 0.5 Cd 0.5 S composite sample with 5% molar content showed the highest photocatalytic H 2 evolution activity with a corresponding H 2 evolution rate of 734 umol h −1 , which was about 20 times higher than that of pure Zn 0.5 Cd 0.5 S sample and 2 times higher than Pt loaded Zn 0.5 Cd 0.5 S sample under visible light irradiation. The photocatalytic activity of the CoP/Zn 0.5 Cd 0.5 S composite sample was stable even after 4 cycling photocatalytic experiments. A possible mechanism on the photocatalytic enhancement of CoP was systematically investigated, which can provide a novel concept for the synthesis of other desirable photocatalytic materials with high photocatalytic performance.

In this study, we meticulously prepared electrocatalysts in the form of Ru nanoclusters-decorated CoP nanowire arrays supported on carbon cloth (Ru@CoP/CC) for HER under both alkaline and acidic conditions. Ru@CoP/CC exhibited exceptional catalytic activity for hydrogen evolution, showcasing overpotentials of 48 mV and 66 mV (10 mA/cm 2 ) in acidic and alkaline media, respectively, which closes to 20% of commercial Pt/C catalysts. Moreover, they showcased outstanding durability, a crucial aspect for their practical application in hydrogen production. Furthermore, this research employed DFT computations to attain a comprehensive understanding of the electronic and structural modifications brought about by the integration of Ru nanoclusters. Ru nanoclusters could coordination environment of CoP, and then effectively accelerate the catalytic reaction. This method opens up a new way to reduce the amount of precious metals in the electrocatalyst, and is helpful to the development of high-performance HER electrocatalyst.

CoP/g-C 3 N 4 , a kind of noble-metal-free binary photocatalyst , has been demonstrated to be active for water splitting. However, high recombination rate of charge carriers is still one of the biggest factors to restrict the photoactivity of CoP/g-C 3 N 4 . In this paper, Boron doped g-C 3 N 4 nanodots (BCNDs) were introduced to CoP/g-C 3 N 4 nanosheets (CoP/CNNS) and a novel CoP/BCNDs/CNNS ternary photocatalyst was constructed. Experimental characterization and testing results indicate that BCNDs/CNNS heterojunction was formed in CoP/BCNDs/CNNS ternary photocatalyst. Comparing with CoP/g-C 3 N 4 , CoP/BCNDs/CNNS facilitates electron-hole separation, and the photocatalytic hydrogen evolution rate can reach 1332.81 μmolg −1 ·h −1 , which is approximately 9.7 times as high as CoP/CNNS. It owns an apparent quantum efficiency of 10.78% at 420 nm. This work would provide a novel strategy to construct high activity g-C 3 N 4 based catalyst without noble metals.

Growing demand for clean and renewable energy resources has sparked intensive research on the development of an effective strategy to prepare non-noble metal electrocatalysts for oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Herein, we report a new type of N-doped carbon coated CoP particle/carbon nanotube composite (CNT-NC-CoP) has been synthesized by in situ nucleation and growth of ZIF-67 nanoparticles onto carbon nanotubes, which subsequently is treated with carbonization and phosphorization. Unique hierarchical structure endows as-obtained CNT-NC-CoP with high specific surface area , abundant exposed active sites, quick ion diffusion path , and good electrical conductivity , thus exhibiting the highest electrocatalytic capability with the low overpotential of 251 mV at the current density of 10 mA cm −2 and remaining long-term durability (overlapping LSV curve after 10 h). Besides, density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal that CoOOH/graphene charged surfaces are more effective for facilitating intermediates adsorption and improving the corresponding catalytic activity .

A new catalyst system of CoP/peroxymonosulfate (PMS) is presented, which achieved significant improvement in catalytic activity. Nanostructured CoP, obtained by a simple solid-state reaction, exhibited dramatic catalytic activity with 97.2% degradation of orange II of 100 ppm within 4 min. Moreover, the high efficiency could be reached for other phenolic pollutants, i.e., phenol and 4-chlorophenol. The reaction rate is much higher than the most reported catalysts. Effect of parameters on catalytic activity of the catalyst was studied in detail. Notably, initial pH of the solution had a slight negative effect on the catalytic performance over the pH range 4.07–10.92, suggesting that CoP has the great adaptability of pH. CoP/PMS demonstrated excellent anti-interference performance toward anions (Cl − , NO 3 − , and HCO 3 − ). In addition, the pathway of degradation of orange II is proposed by analyzing its intermediates. Based on the XPS spectra of CoP, the identification of the reactive species ( OH and SO 4 − ) by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) analysis and quenching tests, a possible mechanism for activation of PMS by CoP was proposed. Considering the dramatic catalytic activity, a wide range of pH catalyst suited, CoP is believed to provide robust support for the promising industrial application of AOPs.

Lithium-sulfur batteries (LSBs) have attracted wide attention in the field of rechargeable batteries due to their high theoretical energy density. However, the severe “shuttle effect” of lithium polysulfides (LiPSs) and the slow conversion kinetics are key factors restricting the commercial application of LSBs. To address these issues, we designed and prepared a coral-like composite of CoP-modified polyaniline-derived carbon chain skeleton (CoP/C) as the sulfur host for LSBs. The carbon chains can provide multidirectional channels for the transport of Li + and electron; and the uniformly scattered CoP can adsorb the LiPSs through chemical adsorption and simultaneously promote their conversion, thus the “shuttle effect” can be effectively alleviated. Meanwhile, the effect of the amount of aniline monomer on the electrochemical performance of sulfur cathode were studied. After sulfur loading, the CoP/C-300/S (with aniline monomer addition of 300 μL) exhibits the best electrochemical performance. At 1 C, after 500 cycles, it still maintains a reversible specific capacity of 478 mA h g −1 , with a decay rate of 0.074% per cycle, indicating its excellent cycling stability. This work provides a new approach for the application of CoP material in advanced LSBs.

Developing efficient, low-price non-noble metal-based electrocatalysts for overall water splitting in alkaline medium remains a formidable challenge. In our work, Cr-doped CoP/Fe2P (Cr-CoP/Fe2P) flower-like microsphere was synthesized through a simple hydrothermal and phosphating process. The resulting Cr-CoP/Fe2P electrocatalyst shows significantly enhanced oxygen evolution reaction performance (262 mV @ 10 mA cm-2) and has a satisfactory hydrogen evolution reaction performance (114 mV @ 10 mA cm-2), coupled with favorable stability in an alkaline medium. Furthermore, when assembling Cr-CoP/Fe2P into an electrolytic cell, the two-electrode system can provide a current density of 10 mA cm-2 at a voltage of 1.61 V. At high current density, the performance of the electrolytic cell composed of Cr-CoP/Fe2P is superior to that of noble metal catalyst electrode pair. Electronic structure analysis and various characterizations confirm that Cr doping and the formation of CoP/Fe2P heterogeneous interfaces redistribute the electron densities of the active sites, enlarge the specific surface area, and enhance the aerophobicity of the catalysts, thereby improving the electrocatalytic property. This work provides a referable method for engineering highly efficient and stable non-noble polymetallic phosphides, which serve as bifunctional electrocatalyst for overall water splitting.

Constructing highly active and noble metal-free electrocatalysts is significant for the anodic oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Herein, uniform carbon-coated CoP nanospheres (CoP/C) are developed by a direct impregnation coupling phosphorization approach. Importantly, CoP/C only takes a small overpotential of 230 mV at the current density of 10 mA cm–2 and displays a Tafel slope of 56.87 mV dec–1. Furthermore, the intrinsic activity of CoP/C is 21.44 times better than that of commercial RuO2 under an overpotential of 260 mV. In situ Raman spectroscopy studies revealed that a large number of generated Co–O and Co–OH species could facilitate the *OH adsorption, effectively accelerating the reaction kinetics. Meanwhile, the carbon shell with a large number of mesoporous pores acts as the chainmail of CoP, which could improve the active surface area of the catalyst and prevent the Co sites from oxidative dissolution. This work provides a facile and effective reference for the development of highly active and stable OER catalysts.
