In-situ grown ternary metal hydroxides@3D oriented crumpled V₂C MXene sheets for improved electrocatalytic oxygen evolution reaction by Iqbal, Anum

“…As a result, the NiFeCr@3D V₂C-MX composite has shown an excellent electrocatalytic activity with an overpotential of 410 mV at a current density of 200 mA cm⁻², Tafel slope of 100 mV dec in 1M KOH. Besides, the significant interaction between metallic centers and MXene support prevent detachment or agglomeration of active centers providing maximum interaction with the electrolytic ions, quick ionic OH⁻ transportation, speedy and stable electron transfer channels thus ensure the long-term stability of NV-5MX during 53 h continuous operation of OER. …”
