Abstract
One type of porous carbon nanomaterial decorated by abundant Pt/ZrO2 nanoparticles can be conveniently prepared, which is pyrolyzed from flower-shaped Zr-based UiO-67 precursor with a small amount of H2PtCl6 molecules in its large pores. In addition, the obtained Pt/ZrO2 carbon electrocatalyst can bring efficient electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution performance and long-term stability.
