摘要

The modification of NiFe layered double hydroxide (LDH)-based catalysts has garnered significant attention as a promising strategy for enhancing oxygen evolution reaction (OER) efficiency. In this work, graphite felt (GF) was modified using sodium thiosulfate as a sulfur source, followed by the deposition of NiFe LDH via a one-step hydrothermal process. The sulfur-treated GF electrodes exhibited an increased defect density and a well-developed microporous structure, which improved catalyst adhesion. Electrochemical evaluations demonstrated that the S-Ni7Fe3 LDH/TGF exhibited superior OER activity, achieving an overpotential of 290 mV at 10 mA cm−2 and a Tafel slope of 87.84 mV dec−1, outperforming the unmodified Ni7Fe3 LDH/TGF (302 mV). Additionally, the modified electrode displayed remarkable durability, sustaining 310 h of operation under demanding conditions (1 M KOH, 1 A cm−2, and 60 °C), underscoring its robust electrochemical stability. This study highlights the critical role of substrate modification in enhancing electrocatalytic efficiency and provides a promising pathway for developing high-performance OER catalysts for industrial applications through three-dimensional carbon-based engineering.
