Abstract

The heteroporous MoS₂/Ni₃S₂ catalyst exhibits excellent electrocatalytic activity for the overall urea splitting with only a cell voltage of 1.45 V at 20 mA cm⁻² in 1 M KOH with 0.33 M urea. This value is the best of all the bifunctional urea splitting electrocatalysts, including Pt, reported to date.
