摘要

The teams of Lu and Tian reported a halide ion modification strategy that endows a Pt cathode with strong anti-scaling capability while sustaining an efficient hydrogen evolution reaction during direct seawater electrolysis. The surface-bound halide ligand optimizes *H adsorption on adjacent Pt sites to boost Heyrovsky step and repels interfacial OH to shift the local pH maximum into the bulk electrolyte. These combined effects drive continuous hydrogen generation and high-purity Mg(OH)2 precipitation without observable decay in a long-term stability measurement at 100 mA cm−2 in direct seawater electrolysis.
