In this context, here, the development of a superhydrophilic bifunctional electrocatalyst that facilitates both oxygen evolution reaction (OER) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) in alkaline conditions is demonstrated. This is achieved through the in situ growth of hierarchical NiMoO4@CoMoO4 center dot xH(2)O nanostructure on nickel foam (NF) via a two-step hydrothermal synthesis method. NiMoO4@CoMoO4 center dot xH(2)O/NF facilitates OER and HER at the overpotentials of 180 and 220 mV, respectively, at the current density of 10 mA cm(-2). The NiMoO4@CoMoO4 center dot xH(2)O/NF parallel to NiMoO4@CoMoO4 center dot xH(2)O/NF cell can be operated at a potential of 1.60 V compared to 1.63 V displayed by the system based on the Pt/C@NF parallel to RuO2@NF standard electrode pair configuration at 10 mA cm(-2) for overall water splitting. The density functional theory calculations for the OER process elucidate that the lowest Delta G of NiMoO4@CoMoO4 compared to both Ni and NiMoO4 is due to the presence of Co in the OER catalytic site and its synergistic interaction with NiMoO4. The preparative strategy and mechanistic understanding make the windows open for the large-scale production of the robust and less expensive electrode material for the overall water electrolysis.&lt;/p&gt;

	The poor electrode-electrolyte interfaces in quasi-solid-state zinc metal batteries often hinder Zn2+ ion transport due to the poor compatibility of the gel electrolyte with the electrodes. This report proposes a dual-interface engineering strategy across the anode, cathode, and separator using a single hydrogel polymer electrolyte (HPE). The integration of vanadyl phosphate functionalized carbon nanotubes (VP/fCNT) into a commercial glass fiber (GF) separator, followed by a thin hydrogel coating and UV-light photopolymerization, resulted in a dual-interface engineered cathode-separator-electrolyte structure (VP/IC-EGF). To mitigate the dendritic growth, an artificial solid electrolyte interface was developed on Zn foil (AEI@Zn). The engineered GF (EGF) demonstrates a room-temperature conductivity of 6.5 mS cm-1 and a high electrochemical stability window of 2.4 V vs. Zn|Zn2+. The symmetric cell with AEI@Zn|EGF|AEI@Zn exhibits exceptional plating/stripping stability over 1400 h at a current density of 0.1 mA cm-2 and a capacity of 0.1 mAh cm-2. Moreover, the low-volume cell (AEI@Zn &amp;amp; Vert;VP/IC-EGF), featuring the dual-interface-engineered cathode-separator-electrolyte, demonstrates outstanding cycling stability with over 3000 charge-discharge cycles at a current rate of 1.0 A g-1, retaining 98-99% of its initial capacity and showing high coulombic efficiency. These findings underscore the significant impact of interface engineering on enhancing the performance of ZMBs.&lt;/p&gt;
