Water-splitting plays an important role in the development of clean and renewable energy production [1-3]. In this project, the Ni/Ag2O nanostructures were synthezied by coprecipitation method. The obtined nanostructures were characterized using various techniques. The electrocatalytic performance of Ni/Ag2O nanostructures was investigated for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) by several electrochemical methods in alkaline solutions. Experiments revealed that Ni0.9Ag0.1Ox nanoparticles exhibit superior activity in alkaline HER cmpared to pure Ag2O, and only need an overpotential of 104 mV at cdurrent density of 10 mA cm-2.
