Mo0.2Ni0.8N/CeO2 heterojunction as bifunctional electrocatalysts for overall urea-water electrolysis

Designing bifunctional catalysts for urea electrolysis: progress and perspectives

“…Hybridizing metal pnictides with other electroactive components is effective in attaining high-performance catalysts. 183 Metals, 184 oxides, 185 hydroxides, 186 sulfides, 187,188 and pnictides 189,190 have been employed to regulate the properties of metal pnictides. These metal pnictide-based heterostructures share the common feature of enlarged active surface area and enhanced intrinsic activities due to the interface interaction between pnictides and other active components.…”

A hierarchical CoSx/Ni(OH)2 heterostructure as a bifunctional electrocatalyst for urea-assisted energy-efficient hydrogen production

“…Recently, various inexpensive transition-metal-based materials, including transition metal sulfides (TMSs), 16,17 phosphides, 18,19 nitrides, 20,21 carbides, 22,23 and hydroxides, 24–27 have been exploited as efficient catalysts. Among them, TMSs, with their distinctive structural advantages, abundant active sites and regulable electronic properties, have drawn great attention.…”
