A bimetallic carbide derived from a MOF precursor for increasing electrocatalytic oxygen evolution activity†
Abstract
We have successfully obtained heterometallic oxides and/or carbides that are calcined from a new bimetallic metal–organic framework (InOF-16, [(Me2NH2)2][In3(BTC)5Co2(DMF)6]·solvent). Through different thermal treatments, the change in the resultant composition has been observed, thus leading to the product of InOF-16-Ar/O2-T (T = 550, 700 and 1000 °C) for efficient oxygen evolving reactions.
