Self‐Supported Fe‐Based Nanostructured Electrocatalysts for Water Splitting and Selective Oxidation Reactions: Past, Present, and Future

“…[ 78,183l,234 ] In addition, the use of carbon‐based materials as the anti‐corrosion coating can be employed to preserve or enhance the activity of the catalytic species within an acid environment. [ 159c,164,200 ] iv)The primary emphasis in studying Fe‐based self‐supported electrodes has been on their ability to catalyze the splitting of simulated seawater solutions rather than real seawater. However, real seawater presents a significantly more intricate environment, characterized by a multitude of complex metal ions, small particulates, bacteria, and unstable local pH regions.…”

Emerging transition metal and carbon nanomaterial hybrids as electrocatalysts for water splitting: a brief review

“…For TM/CNMs electrocatalysts towards water splitting, doping of electron efficient nitrogen and electron deficient boron in CNMs can break the electroneutrality of carbon along with the production of novel active sites, 256 so the HER, OER and OWS catalytic activities of N and B co-doped TM/CNMs, entitled as TM/N,B-CNMs, could be significantly enhanced as compared with either TM/N-CNMs or TM/B-CNMs. [257][258][259][260][261][262] This enhancement in performance could be attributed to the high density of catalytically active sites and simultaneous presence of both electron accepting (B-C) and electron donating (N-C) sites. 263 In this section, recent progress of TM/N,B-CNMs based catalysts for water splitting has been summarized and an overall performance comparison of some representative TM/N,B-CNMs hybrids selected on the basis of HER, OER and OWS efficiency is presented in Table 4.…”

“…4c) of N-CoP/NH 2 -BP shows three deconvoluted peaks at 397.6, 399.2 and 401.4 eV, corresponding to metal-N, N-H and P-N bonds, respectively. [34][35][36][37][38][39][40] Relative to BP, a weak new peak at 924 cm −1 appears in the Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrum of N-CoP/NH 2 -BP (Fig. S5 †).…”
