Abstract

Developing earth-abundant-electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction is one of the promising ways to achieve efficient water-splitting for hydrogen production (a clean chemical fuel). This paper reviews the activity, stability and durability for hydrogen evolution reaction in alkaline medium of different types of recently reported potential electrocatalysts such as Ni, Co, NiCo, Fe, Cu, W, Mo, Se, Mn, Zn, V, and metal free based earth-abundant-electrocatalysts. Further, this paper reviews the strategies used to achieve the remarkably low overpotential (including η10: ≤ 35 mV), high long term stability (including ≥ 100 h) and high durability (including ≥ 5000 cycles) of potential earth-abundant-electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reaction in alkaline medium and those are better or well comparable with the state-of-the-art, noble, Pt/C electrocatalyst. Finally, this paper summarizes the efficient strategies such as preparing porous structured materials, preparing nanostructured materials with superaerophobic surface, preparing nanostructured materials, preparing carbon composites/integrating electrocatalysts with carbon, preparing amorphous materials, preparing materials with oxygen vacancies/defects, preparing metal chalcogenides, preparing bimetallic/multi-metallic materials, doping metals or heteroatoms, preparing electrocatalysts with core-shell structure, decorating electrocatalysts with amines, preparing homo-junction/heterojunction structured materials, preparing hollow structured materials, and preparing boron-rich surface to enhance the activity, stability, and durability 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.
