Abstract

The research progress on the development of nickel-based materials and their composite materials as catalyst of hydrogen evolution in recent years was reviewed.Through the study on the structure adjustment of nickel-based material,the research and development situation on the catalyst of hydrogen evolution prepared by nickel-based material and other metal or nonmetal compound were discussed.Their synthetic methods,structure characteristics,catalytic activity and stability were analyzed.The reason of the performance improvement of hydrogen evolution was discussed.Finally,the development trend of nickel-based materials as catalysts for hydrogen evolution in electrolysis was prospected.
