Electrochemical water splitting is attractive for hydrogen production, however, high cost of noble metal catalysts, such as platinum, restrict its use. Herein, molybdenum carbide nanoparticles encapsulated within carbon matrices as a high-performance and low-cost electrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) were prepared by DC arc discharge plasma under ambient air conditions. According to XRD patterns the synthesized product includes molybdenum carbides (Я-Mo2C and Mo1.2C0.8), molybdenum and graphite crystalline phases. The resulting material shows highly active catalytic properties with very small onset potential of -63 mV, a low overpotential of -226 mV at current density of 10 mA cm-2 and Tafel slope of 66.1 mV.dec-1 in 1.0 M KOH. The long-term HER stability test for 50 h under constant current density of 10 mA cm-2 confirmed the stability of the catalytic properties of the synthesized product. Therefore, such a method for producing Mo-based material for HER electrocatalysts is promising and can have practical application.
