Abstract As the demand for environment-friendly energy source for future is continuously rising, various research fields have focused on clean production of hydrogen for its high energy density and non-toxic byproducts. Water electrolysis has been known as the most promising solution, however, the viability of water electrolysis still heavily depends on noble metal-based catalysts which raises the total cost of the entire system. Therefore, the development of high-performance and cost-effective catalyst is an urgent issue in both scientific and industrial communities. Herein, we report the synthesis of MxMn1-xCO3 nanowire via stepwise thermal decomposition and cation exchange reaction, and demonstrated the favorable effect of replacing Mn with another transition metal (M) for electrocatalytic performance in water electrolysis.
