A high-porosity carbon molybdenum sulphide composite with enhanced electrochemical hydrogen evolution and stability.

This work describes a highly active and stable acid activated carbon fibre and amorphous MoS_x composite hydrogen evolution catalyst. The increased electrochemical-surface area is demonstrated to cause increased catalyst electrodeposition and activity. These composite electrodes also show an improved stability towards the mechanical degradation of the MoS_x catalyst. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
