Highlights A percolating network of distorted 2D Pt nanomembranes was synthesized by polymer surface buckling-enabled exfoliation for hydrogen evolution reaction. The 2D Pt nanomembrane enabled important technological applications for its high efficiency, low costs, and good stability, making it potential alternative to commercial Pt/C. Our 2D Pt nanomembranes offer insights into a new mechanism for efficient catalyst design strategy: lattice distortion-induced heterogeneous strain.
