This project aims to develop robust, efficient porous hybrid hydrogen electrodes for electrochemical hydrogen production in anion exchange membrane water electrolyser. anion exchange membrane water electrolyser powered by renewable energy has emerged as a key avenue towards clean hydrogen with zero carbon footprint. However, the electrochemical turnover on the hydrogen electrode has been significantly hindered by the sluggish reaction kinetics in alkaline solution. The project is expected to generate cost-effective hydrogen electrodes for hydrogen electrolyzers, advanced knowledge in the electrode material engineering, electrochemical reaction mechanistic insights, and eventually promoted development of disruptive electrolysis technology.

本项目旨在开发用于阴离子交换膜电解槽电化学制氢的坚固、高效的多孔杂化氢电极。以可再生能源为动力的阴离子膜电解水已成为实现清洁氢气零碳排放的重要途径。然而，在碱性溶液中，缓慢的反应动力学显著地阻碍了氢电极上的电化学循环。该项目有望为氢电解槽生产高性价比的氢电极、电极材料工程方面的先进知识、电化学反应机理方面的见解，并最终促进破坏性电解技术的发展。
