Grain-boundary-rich layered double hydroxides via a boron-assisted strategy for the oxygen evolution reaction. Issue 37 (20th April 2022) - Hou, Xiaohan
Abstract : We propose a facile boron-assisted strategy to prepare NiFe LDHs with rich grain boundaries, which originate from imperfect oriented attachment between primary LDH particles. The grain-boundary-rich NiFe LDHs exhibit excellent OER activity. Abstract : This study reports a facile boron-assisted strategy to prepare NiFe LDHs with rich grain boundaries. The formation of these grain boundaries originates from the imperfect oriented attachment between primary LDH particles transformed from amorphous borides/borates. The obtained grain-boundary-rich NiFe LDHs exhibit excellent oxygen evolution reaction activity.
