Title: Nonprecious metal catalyst for hydrogen production from neutral solutions

Abstract

Catalysts comprising MoP and MoP2 are disclosed, wherein the catalyst is a composite. The catalyst may have a molar ratio of MoP:MoP2 within a range of 5:95 to 95:5. The catalyst may be used as a cathode active material for hydrogen generation from neutral pH solutions, such as wastewater or seawater. Methods of making the catalyst also are disclosed.
