Ultrastable electrode materials for spontaneous fuel production by electrochemical water splitting have received tremendous amounts of attention, because the conventional electrolysis system is not fully renewable as it needs power from nonrenewable sources. The design a self-supportive and ultradurable electrocatalyst that budget-friendly obtained via less time-consuming method therefore extremely necessary to split into hydrogen oxygen. It important divulge structural information catalyst in order extraordinarily stable electrodes solar-driven water-electrolysis system. This paper reports facile synthesis single-phase Cuf@Ni5P4 core–shell nanostructures overall alkaline media. Cuf@Ni5P4-based cell shows extraordinary stability working electrolyte 150 h at current density 10 mA cm–2 with 96% retention its initial potential. Cuf@Ni5P4∥Cuf@Ni5P4 hybridized solar demonstrates suitability concept toward hybrid energy device impulsive generation H2 O2. versatile opens up new route green applications.
