Abstract:This work improved the sluggish kinetics in an alkaline medium's electrochemical hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) by introducing the π-conjugated electronic effect from rationally designed Pt-1,1′-bi(2-naphthol) (BINOL) hybrid nanocomposites. The inorganic−organic hybrid nanocomposites were aqueously synthesized by a facile one-pot approach upon modulation of the surfactant concentration to precisely control the morphology in organic BINOL entities. This protocol led to different geometric nanostructures, inc… Show more
