Genomic DNA-mediated formation of a porous Cu₂(OH)PO₄/Co₃(PO₄)₂·8H₂O rolling pin shape bifunctional electrocatalyst for water splitting reactions.

ABSTRACT: Among the accessible techniques, the production of hydrogen by electrocatalytic water oxidation is the most established process, which comprises oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Here, we synthesized a genomic DNA-guided porous Cu₂(OH)PO₄/Co₃(PO₄)₂·8H₂O rolling pin shape composite structure in one pot. The nucleation and development of the porous rolling pin shape Cu₂(OH)PO₄/Co₃(PO₄)₂·8H₂O composite was controlled and stabilized by the DNA biomolecules. This porous rolling pin shape composite was explored towards electrocatalytic water oxidation for both OER and HER as a bi-functional catalyst. The as-prepared catalyst exhi
