Optimizing the structure and components is an effective strategy for increasing electrocatalytic energy-saving H-2 fuel production. By alloying Cu with Pd through pulsed laser ablation in methanol, the performance of cathodic HER and anodic HzOR can be selectively enhanced. The Cu1Pd3/C ratio demonstrates outstanding HER and HzOR performance, and the constructed HzOR-assisted electrolyzer shows exceptional endurance.
Optimizing the structure and components is a prevalent strategy for increasing electrocatalytic energy-saving H-2 fuel production. One of the sustainable and efficient techniques is electrocatalytic water splitting for H-2 generation, but it is still restricted by the kinetically sluggish OER. Due to the lower standard oxidation potential of -0.33 V, replacing the OER with anodic hydrazine oxidation reaction (HzOR) is an effective way to extensively reduce the use of electricity in water electrolysis. Through alloying, the semiconductor and adsorption characteristics of Cu, interlaced by Pd2+ solution on the Pd surface by pulsed laser ablation (PLA) in methanol, are selectively altered to maximize cathodic HER and anodic HzOR performance. The optimal Cu1Pd3/C ratio demonstrates outstanding HER performance with a low overpotential of 0.315 V at 10 mA cm(-2), as well as an ultralow overpotential of 0.560 V for HzOR in 0.5 M N2H4/1.0 M KOH. Furthermore, the constructed HzOR-assisted electrolyzer cell with Cu1Pd3/C vertical bar vertical bar Cu1Pd3/C as anode and cathode exhibits a cell voltage of 0.505 V at 10 mA cm(-2) with exceptional endurance over 5 h. The current study advances competent CuPd alloys as multifunctional electrocatalysts for H 2 fuel production using a HzOR-assisted energy-efficient electrolyzer.
