Hydrogen Evolution Reactions

Redox behaviors and hydrogen evolution efficiencies of Pd and Mo deposited Pd electrodes have been investigated in 30wt.% KOH electrolyte by cyclic voltammetry. Cyclic voltammograms of Pd electrode in between the potential range - 1.05 V to + 0.75 V showed two couples of redox peaks for the transformations of Pd(0) ←→ Pd(OH)2 and Pd(OH)2 ←→ PdOOH, an anodic peak for the desorption of diffusional hydrogen (dH) and hydrogen and oxygen evolutions at the terminal potential regions. Hydrogen evolution efficiency found decreased with time and then reached to a stable condition after 35 minutes. In presence of deposited Mo, the electrode stable condition appeared after 10 minutes only. Pd found predominates over deposited Mo. Both the Pd(0) ←Pd(OH)2 and Mo(0) ← Mo(OH)2 transformations appeared at the same potential value. Mo stopped the movement of hydrogen adsorption and absorption region of Pd electrode towards negative potential direction. It increased the hydrogen evolution efficiency of Pd electrode remarkably. At the potentials - 1.1 V, - 1.2 V, - 1.25 V and - 1.3 V, currents for Pd + Mo system found 1.44, 1.25, 1.20, 1.23 times higher than those of Pd electrode. Mo also showed hydrogen migratory role to the fraction of Pd surface covered by it. Hydrogen evolution reactions (HER) over Pd and Pd + Mo surfaces seemed followed similar mechanisms. Tafel plots for the HER for both the systems showed two Tafel regions. Exchange current density values (io) for the low and high overpotential regions of Pd + Mo system showed 2.85 times and 1.29 times higher values than those of Pd electrode.

Carbon dioxide electroreduction (CO2R) is being actively studied as a promising route to convert carbon emissions to valuable chemicals and fuels. However, the fraction of input CO2 that is productively reduced has typically been very low, <2% for multicarbon products; the balance reacts with hydroxide to form carbonate in both alkaline and neutral reactors. Acidic electrolytes would overcome this limitation, but hydrogen evolution has hitherto dominated under those conditions. We report that concentrating potassium cations in the vicinity of electrochemically active sites accelerates CO2 activation to enable efficient CO2R in acid. We achieve CO2R on copper at pH <1 with a single-pass CO2 utilization of 77%, including a conversion efficiency of 50% toward multicarbon products (ethylene, ethanol, and 1-propanol) at a current density of 1.2 amperes per square centimeter and a full-cell voltage of 4.2 volts.

Exploiting efficient electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution reactions (HERs) is important for boosting the large-scale applications of hydrogen energy. Herein, MoP-RuP2 encapsulated in N,P-codoped carbon (MoP-RuP2@NPC) with abundant interfaces were prepared via a facile avenue with the low-toxic melamine phosphate as the phosphorous resource. Moreover, the obtained electrocatalyst possessed a porous nanostructure, had abundant exposed active sites and improved the mass transport during the electrocatalytic process. Due to the above merits, the prepared MoP-RuP2@NPC delivered a greater electrocatalytic performance for HERs (50 mV@10 mA cm−2) relative to RuP2@NPC (120 mV) and MoP@NPC (195 mV) in 1 M KOH. Moreover, an ultralow potential of 1.6 V was required to deliver a current density of 10 mA cm−2 in the two-electrode configuration for overall water splitting. For practical applications, intermittent solar energy, wind energy and thermal energy were utilized to drive the electrolyzer to generate hydrogen gas. This work provides a novel and facile strategy for designing highly efficient and stable nanomaterials toward hydrogen production.
