Abstract

A current challenge faced in water electrolysis is the development of structure–activity relationships for understanding and improving IrO x -based catalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). We report a simple and scalable modified Adams fusion method for preparing highly OER active, chlorine–free iridium oxide nanoparticles of various size and shape. The applied approach allows for the effects of particle size, morphology, and the nature of the surface species on the OER activity of IrO 2 to be investigated. Iridium oxide synthesized at 350 °C from Ir(acac) 3, consisting of 1.7 ± 0.4 nm particles with a specific surface area of 150 m 2 g –1, shows the highest OER activity ( E = 1.499 ± 0.003 V at 10 A g ox –1 ). Operando X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) studies indicate the presence of iridium hydroxo (Ir–OH) surface species, which are strongly linked to the OER activity. Preparation of larger IrO 2 particles using higher temperatures results in a change of the particle morphology from spherical to rod-shaped particles. A decrease of the intrinsic OER activity was associated with the predominant termination of the rod-shape particles by highly ordered (110) facets in addition to limited diffusion within mesoporous features.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
