Electrolyzing spent cupronickel to fabricate superhydrophilic electrocatalysts for enhanced water splitting

Abstract

Herein, novel and efficient IF-supported NiCu (NiCu/IF) and NiMn (NiMn/IF) electrocatalysts are successfully deposited on iron foam (IF) via electrolysis of spent cupronickel (SCN), with outstanding performance for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in an alkaline solution, respectively. The physical and electrochemical characterization results demonstrate that the catalysts possess a large active surface area, remarkable performance, and excellent durability.
