Achieving excellent H2 evolution activity of silver nanocatalyst by a simple electrochemical treatment process.
Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were synthesized in an aqueous solution via the reduction of AgNO3 employing citrate reducing agent. The resultant AgNPs were first assayed for the catalytic H2 evolution in an acidic electrolyte, namely pH 0.3 H2SO4 solution, showing negligible activity. The AgNPs were then conditioned in the same electrolyte solution while repeating the cyclic potential polarization between -0.25 V and 0.95 V (or 1.8 V) versus RHE. Effects of the electrochemical treatment to the morphology, crystalline, surface chemistry and H2 evolution catalytic activity of AgNPs were examined. It was found that the electrochemical treatment remarkably boosted the H2 evolution catalytic activity of AgNPs. The electrochemically activated AgNPs represents an attractive Pt-free catalyst for the H2 evolution in acidic medium.
