Abstract

Abstract : A coupled hybrid of molybdenum phosphide and reduced graphene oxide has been synthesized utilizing Mo-based MOFs as precursors through a facile method for the first time. The nanocomposite exhibits superior electrocatalytic performance, which is one of the best MoP-based electrocatalysts under acidic conditions reported so far. Abstract : A coupled hybrid of molybdenum phosphide (MoP) and reduced graphene oxide has been prepared for the first time utilizing Mo-MOFs as precursors through a facile method. The nanocomposite exhibits superior electrocatalytic performance towards the HER, and is one of the best high-performance MoP-based electrocatalysts under acidic conditions reported so far.
