摘要

The controlled construction of three-dimensional electrocatalysts for cost-effective oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and urea oxidation reaction (UOR) in overall water splitting is of great importance for sustainable development. Constructing heterojunctions and further tailoring their structures is an effective strategy for regulating the electronic structure of catalysts and optimizing their active sites. In this study, a three-dimensional spherical NiO–Cr2O3/NF–P catalyst was prepared via solvothermal treatment and calcination, where P-doping optimizes the electronic structure and induces additional oxygen vacancies. In alkaline electrolyte, the obtained NiO–Cr2O3/NF–P exhibits activity and stability for OER/UOR, contributing to reduced voltage requirements on the anode side during water splitting. This work offering a novel strategy for the development of low-cost, high-performance electrocatalyst materials.
