Tunable Ni2P@polypyrrole nanocomposites for efficient hydrogen evolution and high-performance supercapacitors

Abstract

A composition-dependent Ni2P@PPy nanocomposite is developed as a multifunctional electrocatalyst–supercapacitor. Upon controlling Ni2P loading, Ni2P@PPy switches functionality, delivering efficient hydrogen evolution (102 mV at 10 mA cm−2) or ultrahigh supercapacitor performance (2961 F g−1 at 10 A g−1), highlighting a rational strategy for integrated energy conversion and storage.
