Rationally Designed Hierarchically Structured Tungsten Nitride and Nitrogen‐Rich Graphene‐Like Carbon Nanocomposite as Efficient Hydrogen Evolution Electrocatalyst
Open accessAbstract
Practical application of hydrogen production from water splitting relies strongly on the development of low‐cost and high‐performance electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). The previous researches mainly focused on transition metal nitrides as HER catalysts due to their electrical conductivity and corrosion stability under acidic electrolyte, while tungsten nitrides have reported poorer activity for HER. Here the activity of tungsten nitride is optimized through rational design of a tungsten nitride–carbon composite. More specifically, tungsten nitride (WNx) coupled with nitrogen‐rich porous graphene‐like carbon is prepared through a low‐cost ion‐exchange/molten‐salt strategy. Benefiting from the nanostructured WNx, the highly porous structure and rich nitrogen dopant (9.5 at%) of the carbon phase with high percentage of pyridinic‐N (54.3%), and more importantly, their synergistic effect, the composite catalyst displays remarkably high catalytic activity while maintaining good stability. This work highlights a powerful way to design more efficient metal–carbon composites catalysts for HER.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
