Popis: A self-supported silver electrode was prepared by plasma spraying and used for catalysing the hydrogen evolution reaction. Thanks to the non-equilibrium synthetic conditions, the silver catalyst exposes high-energy (200) crystal planes, which enhance the adsorption of hydrogen and improve the intrinsic catalytic activity. As a result, the silver catalyst delivers an overpotential of 349 mV at 10 mA cm
