Abstract:Inspired from seaweed swayed by waves, the enhanced hydrogen evolution is realized in porous and hybrid g‐C3N4/Pt‐PVDF electrospun membranes via piezoelectricity from water flow energy. The membranes are fabricated by dispersing g‐C3N4/Pt into the mixed solution of PVDF and PEO, followed by electrospinning and selective removal of PEO. By changing the PEO amount, the pore size in nanofibers is adjusted. Due to the hydrogen bonding between g‐C3N4/Pt and PVDF, the β phase of PVDF is increased, beneficial for the… Show more
