    Abstract
  • Ni-Fe bimetallic electrodes are currently recognized as a kind of benchmark transition metal-based oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts. Facile synthesis of Ni-Fe bimetallic electrode materials with excellent catalytic activity and satisfied stability by a simple and low-cost route is still a big challenge. Herein, well-defined Ni-Fe nanoparticles in-situ developed on a planar Fe substrate (Ni-Fe NPs/Fe) is fabricated via a facile one-step galvanic replacement reaction (GRR) carried out in an Ethaline-based deep eutectic solvent (DES). The prepared Ni-Fe NPs/Fe exhibits outstanding OER performance, which needs an overpotential of only 319 mV to drive a current density of 10 mA cm-2, with a small Tafel slope of 41.2 mV dec-1 in 1.0 mol L-1 KOH, high mass activity (up to 319.78 A g-1 at an overpotential of 300 mV) and robust durability for 200 h. Impressively, the Ni-Fe bimetallic oxygen-evolution electrode obtained from the Ethaline-based DES is catalytically more active and durable than that of its counterpart derived from the 4.2 mol L-1 NaCl aqueous solution. The reason for this is mainly related to the different morphology and surface state of the Ni-Fe catalysts obtained from these different solvent environments, particularly for the differences in phy-chemical properties, active species formed and deposition kinetics, offered by the Ethaline-based DES.
