Abstract

Abstract Rational regulation of electrochemical reconfiguration and exploration of activity origin are important foundations for realizing the optimization of electrocatalyst activity, but rather challenging. Herein, we potentially develop a rapid complete reconfiguration strategy for the heterostructures of CoC 2 O 4 coated by MXene nanosheets (CoC 2 O 4 @MXene) during the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) process. The self-assembled CoC 2 O 4 @MXene nanotubular structure has high electronic accessibility and abundant electrolyte diffusion channels, which favor the rapid complete reconfiguration. Such rapid reconfiguration creates new actual catalytic active species of Co(OH) 2 transformed from CoC 2 O 4 ,…
