Deformable Catalytic Material Derived from Mechanical Flexibility for Hydrogen Evolution Reaction

Highlights The main effects of deformation of flexible catalytic materials on the catalytic hydrogen evolution reaction performance are discussed, and a series of novel strategies to design highly active catalysts based on the mechanical flexibility of low-dimensional nanomaterials are summarized in detail. This review provides a strategic choice for the rational design of low-cost and high-performance industrialized electrocatalysts.
