When compared to alternative supports including MXene, MoS2, and carbon nanotubes (CNTs), ZIF-8 showed superior support for transition metals like cobalt . To produce hydrogen by hydride hydrolysis, many catalysts incorporating ZIF-8, including Co@ZIF-8 , CoB@ZIF , and Ru@ZIF-67 , have been reported. Although these Due to environmental concerns and the scarcity of fossil fuels, there is a discernible interest in creating renewable energy sources . Molecular hydrogen (H2) is a prospective energy carrier that can be produced from renewable sources and has a high energy density and power efficiency, among other innovative energy-based technologies . It may be made in many ways, such as via electrolysis-based water splitting or photocatalysis . There are various ways to split water, including electrocatalysis and photocatalysis . Some reported photocatalysts, however, have drawbacks including poor catalytic sites and quick recombination of the produced electron-hole (e/h + ). These semiconductors might be used to create a heterojunction photocatalyst, which could overcome some difficulties .
