Transition metal sulfides are cheap and efficient catalysts for water splitting to produce hydrogen; these compounds have attracted wide attention. Nickel sulfide (NiS2) has been studied in depth because of its simple preparation process, excellent performance and good stability. Here, we propose a modification to the hydrothermal synthesis method for the fabrication of a highly efficient and stable NiS2 electrocatalyst prepared by two different sulfur sources, i.e., sulfur powder and C3H7NaO3S2 (MPS), for application in hydrogen evolution reactions. The obtained NiS2 demonstrated excellent HER performance with an overpotential of 131 mV to drive -10 mA cm−1 in 0.5 M H2SO4 solution with 5mV performance change after 1000 cycles of stability testing. We believe that this discovery will promote the industrial development of nonprecious metal catalysts. |
