چکیده
Designing a bifunctional catalyst for hydrogen oxidation reaction (HOR) and evolution (HER) is significant toward developing sustainable hydrogen-electric conversion systems. Herein, cost-effective catalyst, Ru/N-doped Carbon@WO3-W2C (Ru/NC@WOC), was developed via co-precipitation polyol reduction. Ru/NC@WOC showed superior HOR/HER activity in alkaline solution comparison with commercial Pt/C. HOR electrochemical tests that the mass at 0.05 V (1.96 ) exchange-current density were 7.5 1.2 times of Additionality, exhibited up 30-fold compared benchmark Ru/C. Moreover, it also displayed exceptional electrocatalytic HER overpotentials 31 mV 10 mA cm−2 119 100 cm−2, surpassing Pt/C, Ru/C, most previously reported electrocatalysts. The outstanding catalytic probably arises from synergy between Ru NC@WOC matrix, suitable binding energy, highly conductive substrate. Thus, this work may pave new avenue to fabricate low-cost catalysts fuel cells water electrolyzer.

An analytical model of hydrogen evolution and oxidation reactions on electrodes partially covered with a catalyst.
Our previous theoretical study on the performance limits of the platinum (Pt) nanoparticle catalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) had shown that the mass transport losses at a partially catalyst-covered planar electrode are independent of the catalyst loading. This suggests that the two-dimensional (2D) numerical model used could be simplified to a one-dimensional (1D) model to prov...

Palladium nanoparticles immobilized on multifunctional hyperbranched polyglycerol-grafted magnetic nanoparticles as a sustainable and efficient catalyst for C-C coupling reactions
This study offers an exclusive class of magnetic nanoparticles supported hyperbranched polyglycerol (MNP/HPG) that was functionalized with citric acid (MNP/HPG-CA) as a host immobilization of palladium nanoparticles. The MNP/HPG-CA/Pd catalyst was fully characterized using some different techniques such as thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), x-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microsco...
