Abstract:
Developing efficient and stable electrocatalyst to hydrogen evolution reaction adaptable for electrolytes with different pH is a big challenge. In this work, a hierarchically structured ternary nanohybrid composed of flower-like Ru nanoparticles, rigid macrocyclic cucurbit[6]uril (CB[6]) and carboxylated multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) was successfully prepared by chemical wet method. Benefited by the structural merits of flower-like Ru nanoparticles exposed abundant active sites supported by the MWCNTs holding superior mass transport and electrons transfer ability as well as the existence of CB[6], the obtained catalyst exhibited outstanding HER activities with overpotentials of 27, 37 and 70 mV at -10 mA/cm 2 in alkaline, acidic, and neutral electrolytes, respectively. Under the same electrocatalytic operation conditions, the HER performance is comparable or superior to commercial Pt/C catalyst (47, 27 and 49 mV). Besides, chronopotentiometric and accelerated stability test also revealed its extraordinary stability, which could be further employed for electrocatalytic procedure in a broad pH range.
