Electrochemical enhancement in coordination-disordered Zr–Fe hydroxide nanosheets (opens in new tab)

Zr–Fe hydroxides exhibit diverse morphologies and compositions, and their synthesis outcomes vary significantly based on the Zr:Fe ratio. High-performance electrocatalysts require ultrathin Zr–Fe nanosheets with uniform Zr incorporation and stable surface chemistry, which are difficult to achieve using existing synthesis routes. In this regard, we synthesized Zr–Fe hydroxide nanosheets by systematically varying Zr:Fe ratios using a surfactant-assisted solution method and investigated their st...
