Bifunctional Ni-15 at.% Zn/rGO catalyst was fabricated by a two-step electrodeposition to be used for efficient alkaline water-to-hydrogen conversion via hydrazine electrolysis. Experiments show that the as-deposited Ni-15 at.% Zn/rGO nanosheet arrays with porous structure possesses excellent catalytic activity and stability towards both hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and hydrazine oxidation reaction (HzOR). A small overpotential of 49 mV at 10 mA cm(-2) with a low Tafel slope of 26.3 mV dec(-1), and a retention rate of 91.4% after 12 h at 10 mA cm(-2) are observed for Ni-15 at.% Zn/rGO towards HER. Moreover, Ni-15 at.% Zn/rGO also shows an extra-high current density of 1097 mA cm(-2) at 0.6 V vs RHE with a low Tafel slope of 33.5 mV dec(-1), and a high durability of 90.5% after 5000 s towards HzOR. Moreover, two-electrode cell was constructed using Ni-15 at.% Zn/rGO as both cathode and anode for HER and HzOR, achieving 100 mA cm(-2) at an ultralow cell voltage of 0.418 V. The above outstanding bifunctional catalytic performance should be attributed to its large ECSA, high electrical conductivity and most importantly, its superaerophobic surface induced by the porous structure with nanosheet arrays.
