The exploration of catalysts with high activity and low cost for water splitting is still necessary. Herein, a nanowire-like morphology CoO/NF electrode is synthesized using facile hydrothermal reaction and calcination treatment. The urea can regulate its morphology during the synthetic process of CoO/NF. Electrochemical studies reveal that the as-obtained CoO/NF exhibits excellent electrocatalytic performance with overpotential of 307 mV at current density of 10 mA cm(-2) and Tafel slope of 72 mV dec(-1) for oxygen evolution reaction, and CoO/NF delivers current density of 10 mA cm(-2) at overpotential of 224 mV for hydrogen evolution reaction. The results of the oxygen evolution reaction stability show that the overpotential of CoO/NF electrode is only increased by 4 mV at current density of 10 mA cm(-2). The two-electrode water splitting with CoO/NF electrodes as both anode and cathode needs a cell potential of 1.76 V to reach 10 mA cm(-2). Therefore, this simple method to prepare CoO/NF electrode can enhance the properties of electrocatalysts, which makes CoO/NF a promising material to replace noble metal-based catalysts.
