摘要: Design and synthesis of efficient noble metal-free hydrogen evolution catalysts is of paramount importance for the practical application of water-splitting devices. Herein, we report a novel synthetic method to grow dispersed molybdenum carbide (Mo2C) micro-islands on flexible carbon cloth (CC). This method involves the controlled synthesis of a supramolecular hybrid between cetyltrimethyl ammonium cations and molybdate anions on CC, followed by simple thermal treatment of this supramolecular hybrid in Ar to form Mo2C …
