Abstract
-NiCo nanoparticles increased to 2.3 times, the overpotential decreased by 19%, the electrocatalytic activity increased to 1.5 times, and the stability improved to 2.2 times compared to those of the Ni nanoparticles. This research provides insights into the design and fabrication of highly efficient catalytic electrodes for alkaline electrolyzers.
