摘要
In order to reduce the amount of noble metal catalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in polymer electrolyte membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE) while maintaining high efficiency, we synthesized new catalysts: IrOx nanoparticles dispersed on Nb-SnO2 and Ta-SnO2 supports with fused-aggregate structures. IrOx nanoparticles with a uniform size of ca. 2 nm were highly dispersed on these supports. The OER activities were evaluated by linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) in 0.1 M HClO4 at 80 degrees C using a channel flow electrode cell. The IrOx/Ta-SnO2 catalysts exhibited an apparent mass activity (MA) of 15 A mgIr(-1) for the OER at 1.5 V vs. RHE, which was 32 times higher than that of a conventional catalyst (mixture of Pt black and IrO2 powders). This suggests a possible reduction of the loading of the noble metal anode catalyst to a level as low as 0.1 mg cm(-2) at a voltage efficiency of 90% at 1 A cm(-2). (C) The Author(s) 2017.
