Enhancing the oxygen evolution reaction activity of CuCo based hydroxides with V₂CT _x MXene.

ABSTRACT: The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is a key reaction in the production of green hydrogen by water electrolysis. In alkaline media, the current state of the art catalysts used for the OER are based on non-noble metal oxides. However, despite their huge potential as OER catalysts, these materials exhibit various disadvantages including lack of stability and conductivity that hinder the wide-spread utilization of these materials in alkaline electrolyzer devices. This study highlights the innovative chemical functionalization of a mixed copper cobalt hydroxide with the V₂CT _x MXene to enhance the OER efficiency, addressing the need for effective electrocatalytic interfaces for sustainable hydrogen production. The herein synthesized CuCo@V₂CT _x</
