摘要:Transition metal nitrides (TMNs) have attracted great attention as ideal active materials in the field of electrocatalysts in recent years due to their excellent electrical conductivity, wide band gap and adjustable morphology. Pure phase Co 4 N nanoparticles encapsulated nitrogen-doped carbon (NC) nanotubes (Co 4 N@NC) were in -situ synthesized by one -pot method. In this paper, the morphology of carbon nanotubes is controlled by adjusting the pyrolysis time, so that more active sites are exposed on carbon nanotubes. Thus, the cobalt nitride catalyst with excellent catalytic performance for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in acidic electrolyte was obtained. In summary, due to the protection of mesoporous nitrogen-doped carbon to Co 4 N nanoparticles, large electrochemically active surface area, good conductivity and more exposed active sites, Co 4 N@NC possesses excellent HER performance in acidic electrolytes. The overpotential of Co 4 N@NC at the current density of 10 mA cm -2 is 117 mV (ri 10 ), and it shows long-term stability in 0.5 M H 2 SO 4 solution for 50 h. This study provides a strategy for the development of catalysts for the controllable synthesis of high-performance transition metal nitrides.
