Abstract
Herein, a brush-like Cu2O-CoO core-shell nanoarray on copper foam (Cu2O-CoO/CF) can achieve efficient oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) performance in alkaline seawater electrolyte. This Cu2O-CoO/CF shows overpotentials as low as 315 and 295 mV at 100 mA cm-2 for the OER and HER, respectively. Moreover, it could also be operated at 1.82 V with 100 mA cm-2 in a two-electrode electrolyzer and exhibits strong stability for at least 50 hours of electrolysis. The excellent performance and hierarchical structure advantages of Cu2O-CoO/CF provide new ideas for designing efficient seawater splitting electrocatalysts.
