Encapsulating Transition Metal Nanoparticles inside Carbon (TM@C) Chainmail Catalysts for Hydrogen Evolution Reactions: A Review.

ABSTRACT: Green hydrogen energy from electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reactions (HERs) has gained much attention for its advantages of low carbon, high efficiency, interconnected energy medium, safety, and controllability. Non-precious metals have emerged as a research hotspot for replacing precious metal catalysts due to low cost and abundant reserves. However, maintaining the stability of non-precious metals under harsh conditions (e.g., strongly acidic, alkaline environments) remains a significant challenge. By leveraging the curling properties of two-dimensional materials, a new class of catalysts, encapsulating transition metal nanoparticles inside carbon (TM@C) chainmail, has been successfully developed. This catalyst can effectively isolate the active metal from direct contact with harsh r
