Pt-Modified High Entropy Rare Earth Oxide for Efficient Hydrogen Evolution in pH-Universal Environments
Nankai University · Hong Kong Polytechnic University
Abstract
The development of efficient and stable catalysts for hydrogen production from electrolytic water in a wide pH range is of great significance in alleviating the energy crisis. Herein, Pt nanoparticles (NPs) anchored on the vacancy of high entropy rare earth oxides (HEREOs) were prepared for the first time for highly efficient hydrogen production by water electrolysis. The prepared Pt-(LaCeSmYErGdYb)O showed excellent electrochemical performances, which require only 12, 57, and 77 mV to achieve a current density of 100 mA cm–2 in 0.5 M H2SO4, 1.0 M KOH, and 1.0 M PBS environments, respectively. In addition, Pt-(LaCeSmYErGdYb)O has successfully worked at 400 mA cm–2 @ 60 °C for 100 h in 0.5 M H2SO4, presenting…
