New insights into the hydrogen evolution reaction using Ni-ZIF8/67-derived electrocatalysts.

ABSTRACT: One of the present great challenges is finding nonprecious materials characterized by efficient electrocatalytic behavior in order to substitute the expensive platinum-based materials for the purpose of hydrogen evolution reactions (HERs). In this study, ZIF-67 and ZIF-67 were used as precursors in order to fabricate metallic-doped N-enriched carbon successfully through a simple process of pyrolysis for applying the hydrogen evolution reaction. In addition, nickel was added to these structures in the course of the synthesis procedure. While under high-temperature treatment, Nickel doped ZIF-67 was transformed into metallic NiCo doped N enriched carbon (NiCo/NC), under high-temperature treatments, Ni-doped ZIF-8 changed into metallic NiZn doped N enriched carbon (NiZn/NC). By combining meta
