Abstract
Platinum (Pt)-based electrocatalysts often exhibit an excellent electrocatalytic activity for hydrogen evolution due to their best hydrogen bonding energy, but materials with high Pt content can easily cause aggregation and reduce their efficiency. In this article, Pt-based electrocatalysts with uniform dispersion and high efficiency were fabricated by a successive hydrothermal and calcination method, and the uniformly distributed Pt nanoparticle was mainly due to the anchoring effect of porphyrin ring in porphyrin MOFs, which made the minimized agglomerations as much as possible in the process of high temperature calcination. The results showed that the optimal Pt/NC-850 could reach current density of 10, 50 and 100 mA cm−2 with only 17, 82 and 152 mV overpotentials, while the Pt/NC-850 also exhibited a superior stability and durability under acidic medium. Impressively, the Pt/NC-850 also had an excellent activity, good stability and durability under alkaline medium.
