Here, polyhedral nickel-tungsten oxide (NiWO) precursor was prepared on nickel foam via the one-step hydrothermal method, and then it was phosphatized at different temperatures to obtain the plate nickel-tungsten phosphide (NiWP)@polyhedral NiWO composite electrocatalyst. The results showed that optimizing phosphating temperature can significantly improve the electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution performance of the plate NiWP@polyhedron NiWO. When the phosphating temperature was 450℃, it exhibited excellent hydrogen evolution catalyt-ic activity with an overpotential of 115 mV to achieve 10 mA·cm^-2. The Tafel slope was 85 mV·dec^-1, which was similar to Pt. In addition, the 24 h long-term stability test showed that the electrocatalyst had good stability. This excellent performance can be attributed to the fact that the plate NiWP@polyhedral NiWO composite structure increases the catalytic active area, reduces the charge/mass transfer resistance, accelerates the electron transfer rate, and increases the reaction kinetics performance.
