Abstract
The sluggish catalytic kinetics of nonprecious metal-based electrocatalysts often hinder them from achieving efficient hydrogen evolution reactions (HERs). Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) and its derivatives have been promising materials for various electrochemical applications. Nevertheless, previous studies have demonstrated that PEDOT coatings can be detrimental to HER performance. In this study, we investigated the alkaline HER efficiency of nickel foam coated with three types of ethylene glycol (EG)-functionalized EDOT. Specifically, EDOT derivatives bearing hydroxyl (-OH) and methoxy (-OCH3) end groups on the EG side chain and molecules containing two EDOT units are interconnected via EG moieties. EG groups are selected due to their strong interaction with alkali metal cations. Intriguingly, improved HER performance is observed on all electrodes coated with EG-functionalized EDOTs. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation, and XPS analysis are employed to explore the origin of enhanced HER efficiency. The results suggest the EG moieties can induce locally concentrated ions near the electrode surface and facilitate water dissociation through noncovalent interactions. The influence of EG chain length is systematically investigated by synthesizing molecules with di-EG, tetra-EG, and hexa-EG functionalities. This study highlights the importance of molecular design in modifying electrode surface properties to promote alkaline HER.

Abstract
Electrochemical water splitting stands as a promising avenue for sustainable hydrogen production, with the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) playing a pivotal role. Efficient and durable electrocatalysts are crucial for expediting the sluggish kinetics of OER. In this work, we investigate the synthesis and performance of a novel CaMoO4/polyaniline (CaMoO4/PANI) composite catalyst for OER. In situ growth of CaMoO4 has been done after the electropolymerization of polyaniline on nickel foam (NF), offering advantages such as improved structural integrity, increased surface area, and enhanced electroconductivity. Electrochemical characterization reveals that CaMoO4/PANI exhibits superior catalytic activity, with an overpotential of 233 mV at 10 mA cm-2, outperforming pristine CaMoO4, PANI, and certain current similar non-noble-metal electrocatalysts. Electrochemical studies reveal that the exceptional activity can be attributed to reduced charge transfer resistance, underscoring the catalyst's enhanced efficiency. Furthermore, multistep chronopotentiometry confirms excellent robustness of the catalyst electrode as well as its excellent mass transportation. This work highlights the potential of inorganic oxide/conductive polymer composites as efficient catalysts for OER, offering insights for future developments in sustainable energy technologies.

Abstract
Water electrolysis is a key factor to generate mobile and sustainable energy sources for H2 production. Cobalt-based Prussian Blue analogues encompassed with polymer support electrocatalysts CoPBAX@PANI (CoPBA@PANI-100, CoPBA@PANI-200, and CoPBA@PANI-300) have been synthesized and characterized. The well-designed CoPBA@PANI-200/GC shows a low overpotential (η10) of 301 mV with a small Tafel slope (56 mV dec-1), comapred to that of IrO2 (348 mV ; 98 mV dec-1) for OER. The conductivity with stability of CoPBAX@PANI have been increased due to the synergistic effect of CoPBA with PANI. PANI provides additional active sites and shows strong binding with Co ions, and the even distribution of CoPBA overcomes the sluggish kinetics. The turnover frequency (TOF) of CoPBA@PANI-200/GC (0.0212, s-1) was ∼15 times higher than IrO2 (0.0014 s-1) at 1.60 V. Furthermore, CoPBA@PANI-200/NF delivers low overpotential of 274 mV@10 mA cm-2 and exhibits a durability of >250 h with a potential loss of 4.2%. Benefiting from strong electronic interaction between polymer support and evenly distributed CoPBA, CoPBAx@PANI shows higher electrochemical active surface area (ECSA) of 53.08 mF cm-2. The solar-based water electrolysis confirmed the practical use of CoPBA@PANI-200/NF (1.57 V) for eco-benign industrial H2 production. The CoPBA@PANI-200 shows exceptional OER performances as well as favorable kinetics to resolve the sluggish water oxidation. Hence, the cost-effective CoPBA@PANI performances opens a prospective way to boost the efficiency of other cobalt-derived catalysts in renewable energy devices.

Abstract
This work reports the synthesis of poly (aniline-co-4-nitroaniline) deposited on a three-dimensional nanostructured nickel (3D-Ni) film, where both layers were fabricated via potentiostatic electrodeposition. The obtained electrocatalyst exhibited excellent electrochemical activity for the Hydrogen Evolution Reaction (HER) with small overpotentials of - 195 and - 325 mV at - 10 and - 100 mAcm-2, respectively, and a low Tafel slope of 53.3 mV dec-1 in seawater. Additionally, the electrocatalyst exhibited good stability after 72 h operation under a constant potential of - 1.9 V vs. RHE. The efficient HER performance of the as-prepared catalyst was found to originate from the synergy between the conducting polymer and three-dimensional nickel nanoparticles with a large electrochemical active surface area. Moreover, the results obtained from electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements revealed that the presence of 3D-Ni layer improved the kinetics of HER by reducing the charge transfer resistance for the electrocatalyst.

Abstract
The design of electrocatalysts with excellent activity and stability for overall water splitting is highly desirable, and remains a challenge. Constructing heterojunctions onto the same substrate is beneficial for the integration of a water-splitting reaction. Herein, self-supported IrNi/Ni(OH)2@PPy and IrNi/Ni(OH)2@FeOOH are fabricated by coupling polypyrrole (PPy) and iron oxyhydroxide (FeOOH) on IrNi/Ni(OH)2nanosheets array, respectively. Benefiting from the nanosheet structure, composition, and heterogeneous interface, the as-constructed IrNi/Ni(OH)2@PPy and IrNi/Ni(OH)2@FeOOH catalysts can efficiently drive the hydrogen evolution reaction and oxygen evolution reaction, respectively. Moreover, the electrolyzer consisting of IrNi/Ni(OH)2@PPy and IrNi/Ni(OH)2@FeOOH for water splitting requires only a low cell voltage of 1.49 V to deliver 10 mA cm-2. This study provides a useful strategy for constructing efficient electrocatalysts by synergistic composition modulation and interface engineering.

Abstract
The water dissociation step (H2O + M + e- → M - Hads + OH-) is a crucial one toward achieving high-performance hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). The application of electronic conducting polymers (ECPs), such as polypyrrole (PPy), as the electrocatalyst for HER is rarely reported because of their poor adsorption energy per water molecule, which hinders the Volmer step. Herein, we strongly enrich PPy hollow microspheres (PPy-HMS) with attractive HER activity by enhancing their hydrophilic properties through hybridization with good water affinity SiO2. The as-prepared PPy-coated SiO2 (PPy@SiO2-HMS) achieves a current density of 10 mA cm-2 at -123 mV, which is lower than that of pristine PPy-HMS (-192 mV). Raman and X-ray photospectroscopy analyses reveal that the enhanced HER catalytic capability can be attributed to the strong electronic couplings between PPy and SiO2, and this improves the adsorption energy per water molecule and in turn accelerates the water dissociation kinetics on PPy. This work highlights the potential application of low-cost ECPs as promising electrocatalysts for water electrolysis.

Abstract
The paper reports a simple and cost-effective strategy for the development of a stable and reproducible PANI/Fe2O3 composite coating as an efficient electrode for the electrocatalytic alkaline hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). The surface characteristics of the developed PANI/Fe2O3 composite coatings are tuned to achieve high hardness (510 HVN), thickness (26 μm), porosity, and surface roughness (Sa = 3.760 μm). The PANI/Fe2O3 composite coating with tuned surface characteristics (PANI/Fe2O3-2GL) facilitates the effective conduction of electrons from a highly conducting polymer to a metal. This increases the electron density on the coating surface and enhances the active surface area, which effectively enhances the hydrogen adsorption efficiency on the coating surface to improve HER activity. The composite coating exhibits enhanced HER activity with low overpotential (110 mV) and high exchange current density (95.32 mA cm-2). The mechanism of HER on the coating surface follows the Volmer-Heyrovsky reaction with the Heyrovsky step as the rate-determining step. The stability of the composite coating under aggressive reaction conditions even after long-term HER confirms its competency with commercial electrocatalysts.

Abstract
In the process of oxygen evolution reaction (OER) on perovskite, it is of great significance to accelerate the hindered lattice oxygen oxidation process to promote the slow kinetics of water oxidation. In this paper, a facile surface modification strategy of nanometer-scale iron oxyhydroxide (FeOOH) clusters depositing on the surface of LaNiO3 (LNO) perovskite is reported, and it can obviously promote hydroxyl adsorption and weaken Ni-O bond of LNO. The above relevant evidences are well demonstrated by the experimental results and DFT calculations. The excellent hydroxyl adsorption ability of FeOOH-LaNiO3 (Fe-LNO) can obviously optimize OH− filling barriers to promote lattice oxygen-participated OER (LOER), and the weakened Ni-O bond of LNO perovskite can obviously reduce the reaction barrier of the lattice oxygen participation mechanism (LOM). Based on the above synergistic catalysis effect, the Fe-LNO catalyst exhibits a maximum factor of 5 catalytic activity increases for OER relative to the pristine perovskite and demonstrates the fast reaction kinetics (low Tafel slope of 42 mV dec−1) and superior intrinsic activity (TOFs of ~40 O2 S−1 at 1.60 V vs. RHE).

Abstract
In the work reported herein, the electrocatalytic properties of Co3 O4 in hydrogen and oxygen evolution reactions have been significantly enhanced by coating a shell layer of a copper-based metal-organic framework on Co3 O4 porous nanowire arrays and using the products as high-performance bifunctional electrocatalysts for overall water splitting. The coating of the copper-based metal-organic framework resulted in the hybridization of the copper-embedded protective carbon shell layer with Co3 O4 to create a strong Cu-O-Co bonding interaction for efficient hydrogen adsorption. The hybridization also led to electronically induced oxygen defects and nitrogen doping to effectively enhance the electrical conductivity of Co3 O4 . The optimal as-prepared core-shell hybrid material displayed excellent overall-water-splitting catalytic activity that required overall voltages of 1.45 and 1.57 V to reach onset and a current density of 10 mA cm-2 , respectively. This is the first report to highlight the relevance of hybridizing MOF-based co-catalysts to boost the electrocatalytic performance of nonprecious transition-metal oxides.

Abstract
Cobalt nitride electrocatalysts have been investigated and proven to show excellent oxygen evolution reaction activity owing to their excellent metallic properties, but their hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) properties are rarely reported because of their unsatisfactory molecular energy level, especially the d-orbital. Herein, taking Co4N as a case study, we tune the d-orbital of metallic Co4N nanowires via rapid formation of iron oxyhydroxide (FeOOH). Experimental analyses show that FeOOH@Co4N/SSM exhibits excellent HER catalytic activity with considerable low onset overpotential (22 mV), small Tafel slope (34 mV dec-1), and excellent stability at current densities ranging from 20 to 100 mA cm-2. Additionally, theoretical assessments display that the hybridization of Co4N with FeOOH is beneficiary for optimizing and promoting the free energy of H adsorption due to the tuning of d-orbital. An overall water-splitting device assembled based on bifunctional FeOOH@Co4N/SSM delivers an onset potential of 1.48 V with excellent stability up to 4 days. This shows a new strategy for designing a high-performance water-splitting device based on cobalt-based electrocatalysts.
