Abstract: | Fabricating earth-abundant bifunctional water splitting electrocatalysts with high efficiencies to replace noble metal-based Pt and IrO2 catalysts is in great demand for the development of clean energy conversion technologies. Molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanostructures have attracted much attention as promising material for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). The production of hydrogen gas by help of potential efficient earth abundant metal oxides, and stable electrolysis seems a promising for hydrogen evolution reaction pathway in 1 M potassium hydroxide electrolyte media is a hot research topic in the field for clean energy conversion, renewable energies and storage. Here we propose asystem composed NiO nanostructures and MoS2 deposited on (MoS2@NiO). Here, by hydrothermal method NiO prepared and MoS2@NiO by an electrospinning technique complex, can be used as catalyst to produce a large amount of hydrogen gas bubbles. The NiO nanostructures composite having highest synergistic behavior fully and covered by the MoS2. For the MoS2@NiO nano composite catalyst, experiment applied in 1 M KOH for the production of hydrogen evolution reaction which exhibits distinct properties from the bulk material. Overpotential values recorded low 406 mV and current density 10 mA cm?2 measured. Co-catalysts characterized by using different techniques for deep study as scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Owing to their unique structure, as-prepared nanocomposite exhibited enhanced catalytic performance for HER due to high electroactive surface area and swift electron transfer kinetics. Based on the HER polarization curves at low potential electrochemical to examine the effects of intercalants HER catalytic efficiency. Our findings establish low Tafel slope (44 mV/decade) and the catalyst stable for at least 13 h. This simple exploitation of MoS2@NiO composite catalysts depending on the intended application of their electrochemistry. |
