Abstract:

Nickel-based phosphorus compounds have been shown to have good hydrogen evolution ability in electrolytic water because of their hydrogen-like electronic structure and excellent stability.Because its intrinsic activity is insufficient,the conductivity is not high and the stability is poor,so practical application of monometallic phosphide is limited.The preparation methods of nickel-based phosphide composites with novel structure,excellent performance and high stability were reviewed.The research results of regulating the electronic structure and microstructure of electrode materials,promoting long-term electrolytic stability,increasing specific surface area and improving electrical conductivity through heteroatom doping,morphology regulation,combination of self-supporting materials and new composite materials(carbon nanotubes,graphene,graphyne,MXene) were summarized and analyzed.It provided the research direction for exploring new nickel-based phosphide composite materials with high catalytic activity and stable structure.
