Electrocatalytic properties of a carbothermically obtained composite based on vanadium nitridophosphide in the hydrogen evolution, oxygen evolution, and oxygen reduction reactions.

ABSTRACT: Hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), oxygen evolution reaction (OER), and oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) are the key electrochemical processes of hydrogen energy. Transition metal phosphides, nitrides, carbides, chalcogenides and their composites are promising non-precious metal electrocatalysts for these processes. Catalysts based on so-called early d-metal compounds, particularly V, attract less attention compared to those based on late transition metals (Ni, Co, Fe, etc.), which can generally be explained by their less competitive catalytic characteristics. However, combining V-containing compounds with late transition metal compounds or doping vanadium compounds with late d-metals allows for a significant increase in the performance of V-containing systems. This possibility, as w
