Acidic Oxygen Evolution Reaction Activity–Stability Relationships in Ru-Based Pyrochlores

Ru-based oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalysts show significant promise for efficient water electrolysis, but rapid degradation poses a major challenge for commercial applications. In this work, we explore several Ru-based pyrochlores (A 2 Ru 2 O 7 , A = Y, Nd, Gd, Bi) as OER catalysts and demonstrate improved activity and stability of catalytic Ru sites relative to RuO 2 . Furthermore, we combine complementary experimental and theoretical analysis to understand how the A-site element impacts activity and stability under acidic OER conditions. Among the A 2 Ru 2 O 7 studied herein, we find that a longer Ru–O bond and a weaker interaction of the Ru 4d and O 2p orbitals compared with RuO 2 results in enhanced initial activity. We observe that the OER activity of the catalysts changes over time and is accompanied by both A-site and Ru dissolution at different relative rates depending on the identity of the A-site. Pourbaix diagrams constructed using density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal a driving force for this experimentally observed dissolution, indicating that all compositions studied herein are thermodynamically unstable in acidic OER conditions. Theoretical activity predictions show consistent trends between A-site cation leaching and OER activity. These trends coupled with Bader charge analysis suggest that dissolution exposes highly oxidized Ru sites that exhibit enhanced activity. Overall, using the stability number (molO2 evolved/molRu dissolved) as a comparative metric, the A 2 Ru 2 O 7 materials studied in this work show substantially greater stability than a standard RuO2 and commensurate stability to some Ir mixed metal oxides. Finally, the insights described herein provide a pathway to enhanced Ru catalyst activity and durability, ultimately improving the efficiency of water electrolyzers.

Mechanistic Insights into Aldehyde Production from Electrochemical CO 2 Reduction on CuAg Alloy via Operando X-ray Measurements

CO 2 electrolysis converts the greenhouse gas CO 2 into valuable fuels and chemicals, such as carbon monoxide, ethylene, ethanol, etc. Currently, Cu is the only known monometallic catalyst capable of producing multicarbon products from electrochemical CO 2 reduction reaction (eCO2RR), while the poor selectivity limits its further use. It has been found that introducing Ag atoms into the Cu lattice can modulate product preference. However, the synergistic effects between Cu and Ag, and thus, the catalytic performance, are strongly influenced by catalyst morphology, electrolyzer configuration, reaction conditions, etc. Operando measurements can provide explicit information on the catalyst dynamic variation during the reaction, but their operation and analysis are challenging. Herein, we prepared CuAg multiphase alloy catalysts by magnetron sputtering, which allowed for investigating the intrinsic interaction between Cu and Ag. eCO2RR performance exhibited an improved selectivity toward carbonyls at the expense of hydrogen and hydrocarbons. The partially alloyed Cu and Ag phases were confirmed by operando X-ray diffraction. By means of combining operando X-ray measurements and density functional theory (DFT) calculations, the preferred carbonyl production is attributed to the reduced electron density and compressive strain of Cu due to Ag incorporation, which leads to a deeper d-band center and therefore weakened intermediate adsorption and oxophilicity. In conclusion, this work provides evidence of the intrinsic structural and electronic interaction between Cu and Ag during eCO2RR. The obtained information will facilitate the design of bi/multi-phase metallic or alloy electrocatalysts.

Quantification of Reactive Oxygen Species Produced from Electrocatalytic Materials

Oxygen electrochemistry goes beyond O 2 , as the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as H 2 O 2 and O 3 during water oxidation is key in the destruction of persistent pollutants in water remediation technologies as well as in the degradation of fuel cell and electrolyzer components. In this study, we developed an in situ method utilizing the rotating ring-disk electrode technique to quantify the formation of O 2 , O 3 , and H 2 O 2 species across a broad pH range (1–8.3). Oxygen selectivity trends over Pt, IrO 2 , and PbO 2 surfaces reveal that even O 2 evolution catalysts may produce small yet measurable amounts of ROS, further modulated by pH and electrode potential. In conclusion, these findings emphasize the need to probe the selectivity of oxygen electrochemistry for a more complete picture of advanced materials for electrochemical technologies.

Exploring the Structure–Function Relationship in Iridium–Cobalt Oxide Catalyst for Oxygen Evolution Reaction across Different Electrolyte Media

Renewable hydrogen generation from water electrolysis offers a viable path to decarbonization if the costs can be reduced. The iridium-based anode catalyst is one of the most expensive components in electrolyzers. We propose reducing iridium usage by substituting Ir with Co, a more affordable metal, in the mixed oxide phase to enhance the catalytic activity while minimizing Ir consumption. A modified surfactant-assisted Adams fusion synthesis technique was developed as a scalable method for producing IrCo oxide nanoparticles. The synthesized material outperforms the commercial baseline, iridium oxide with carbon (IrOx_C), in both acidic and alkaline media. Acid etching (IrCo_ae) further enhances activity by selectively removing Co to expose more active sites. IrCo_ae achieved a significantly lower overpotential at 10 mA/cm 2 compared to IrOx_C, with reductions of approximately 18% under acidic conditions and 14% under alkaline conditions. This work demonstrates that the proposed synthesis method enables efficient Ir utilization and can be adapted to enhance catalyst stability for renewable hydrogen production.

Structure of Iridium Oxides and Their Oxygen Evolution Electrocatalysis in Acidic Media

Proton exchange membrane water electrolyzers (PEMWEs) have emerged as one of the most promising technologies for the large-scale production of clean hydrogen. Gigawatt scale deployment of PEMWEs requires substantial reduction in the loading of iridium (Ir), which is one of the most expensive and rarest elements. Substantial reduction in Ir loading calls for the development of innovative Ir-based anodes, which requires a clear understanding of how iridium oxides accelerate the sluggish oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in acidic media. Herein, we studied the structure and OER electrocatalysis of three representative iridium oxides ─ hydrous, amorphous, and rutile ─ by employing a combination of physicochemical and electrochemical characterization. Additionally, we found that the hydrous iridium oxide had a different local structure of IrO 6 octahedra and a superior OER intrinsic activity compared with the other two, and that the OER activities of all three types decreased with decreasing pH of acidic solution. We proposed that the OER process of these iridium oxides is limited by water nucleophilic attack on the OER intermediate oxygenated adsorbates. Based on this mechanism, we attributed the superior OER activity of hydrous iridium oxides to their longer Ir–O bonds and the pH-dependent OER activity of iridium oxides to the pH-dependent oxidation of Ir.

Ternary and Quaternary Nickel-Iron-Oxide-Based Thin Films as Oxygen Evolution Reaction Catalysts in Alkaline Media

Alkaline water electrolyzers are a promising technology for energy storage and conversion through the electrochemical production of hydrogen, however the slow kinetics of the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) pose a major challenge. The alkaline environment enables the use of non-Pt-group metals as OER catalysts, in particular NiFe-based materials. In this study, Mn and/or Cr were elementally mixed with NiFe to further improve the OER catalyst properties through a controlled, systematic synthesis process involving thin films prepared by electron beam-induced physical vapor deposition (PVD). By exploring both simultaneous co-deposition and serial deposition of the different metals, the OER performance was investigated as a function of both the location of Mn or Cr in the multi-metal NiFe-based catalysts and the difference between surface versus bulk mixing. The distinct differences in the redox dynamics, surface oxidation, and stability of the seven studied catalysts reveal metal Cr- and/or Mn-overlayers as a promising synthesis approach for fine-tuning of catalyst properties and improving the OER performance.

Enhancing Acidic Oxygen Evolution Activity by Supporting Iridium Electrocatalysts on Tantalum Carbide

For a high-performance proton exchange membrane water electrolyzer (PEMWE), acidic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrocatalysts require highly dispersed iridium oxide (IrO x ) nanoparticles. Although carbon-based materials have been explored as promising supports for IrO x nanoparticles, their limited stability under harsh oxidative and acidic PEMWE conditions remains a significant challenge. Here, in this study, we report the synthesis and in situ characterization of active and durable IrOx electrocatalysts supported on electrochemically stable and electrically conducting tantalum carbide (TaC). When applied in a PEMWE, the IrO x /TaC electrocatalyst achieves a cell voltage of 1.71 V at 1.0 A cm –2 , outperforming the commercial IrO 2 catalyst (1.82 V at 1.0 A cm –2 ). Furthermore, the IrO x /TaC catalyst maintains a stable operation for 200 h at 0.5 A cm –2 with a low degradation rate of 36 μV h –1 . Density functional theory calculations further confirm that Ir–O–Ta bond formation at the IrO x /TaC interface reduces the overpotential of the OER compared to IrO 2 . This study underscores the pivotal role of supporting IrO x over stable and conducting metal carbides, providing guidance for the design of advanced acidic OER catalysts.

Nanomaterials and Sustainability

Nanostructuring adds a tremendous degree of tunability to the optical, electronic, magnetic, tribological, and chemical properties of matter. As a result, nanostructured materials already play major roles in the many technologies and industries that provide the comfort and convenience of our everyday lives. Although there are examples of nanostructured materials that currently enhance sustainable technologies, such as for batteries and electrolyzers, the potential impact of nanoscale materials on sustainability has likely not nearly been realized when one considers that the nanostructure–property–composition exploration phase space is almost infinite. We can find inspiration from nature, which builds and assembles nanostructured materials into hierarchical biological structures to perform the enormously complex functions of life, all the while doing so with a relatively small set of elements that are sustainably sourced. This contrasts with current technology, where performance demands often require a greater and greater diversity of elements from the periodic table, some of which are very challenging to be sustainably sourced or recycled.

Measuring pH Changes Inside a Bipolar Membrane Junction

Here, the local pH environment within bipolar membrane (BPM) junctions is complex and not well understood, yet it is important to control for advancing the performance of BPM-based electrochemical systems. We report a voltammetric strategy using an ultrathin Ni mesh pH probe to spatially resolve pH changes in the BPM junction during model BPM electrolyzer operation. Under reverse bias, we observe depletion of OH – at the anion-exchange layer (AEL) interface, with a degree diminishing with increasing distance from the AEL. These gradients correlate with current-dependent water dissociation (WD) and are modulated by the electric field and the surface charge state of the catalyst. By correlating spatial pH profiles with the surface-charging behavior of WD catalysts, we explore a mechanism of catalyst-mediated H + and OH – transfer facilitated by hydrogen-bonding networks. These findings highlight the role of local chemistry and electrostatics in BPM performance and offer new methods to probe and engineer catalytic junctions in electrochemical energy devices.

Colloidal Nafion Particles: Are Cylinders Ubiquitous?

Colloidal Nafion morphology plays a critical role in determining the performance of fuel cells and electrolyzers. While small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) studies previously described Nafion in liquid media as dispersed cylinders, the analysis remains nonunique with multiple possible morphological descriptions of the data. Here, using SANS and all-atomistic molecular dynamics, we confirm that Nafion morphology in liquid media differs substantially depending on dispersing agent and dispersion method. H + Nafion dispersed in N-methyl pyrrolidone forms swollen cluster particles with physically cross-linked ionic groups. Scattering profiles from dispersed Nafion membrane have a large structure factor feature not observed for redispersed Nafion D-521. H + Nafion dispersed in water has a highly elongated cylindrical morphology (radius = 10 ± 1.5 Å, height = 358 ± 4.7 Å) with fully dissociated and solvated sulfonic acid groups on the particle wall. In conclusion, these results highlight an important discrepancy between the methods of preparing Nafion dispersions and the use of simplified analysis techniques to describe Nafion morphology.

Influence of Water Sorption on Ionic Conductivity in Polyether Electrolytes at Low Hydration

Ion-containing polymers are subject to a wide range of hydration conditions across electrochemical and water treatment applications. Significant work on dry polymer electrolytes for batteries and highly swollen membranes for water purification has informed our understanding of ion transport under extreme conditions. However, knowledge of intermediate conditions (i.e., low hydration) is essential to emerging applications (e.g., electrolyzers, fuel cells, and lithium extraction). Ion transport under low levels of hydration is distinct from the extreme conditions typically investigated, and the relevant physics cannot be extrapolated from existing knowledge, stifling materials design. In this study, we conducted ion transport measurements in LiTFSI-doped polyethers that were systematically hydrated from dry conditions. A semiautomated apparatus that performs parallel measurements of water uptake and ionic conductivity in thin-film polymers under controlled humidity was developed. For the materials and swelling range considered in this study (i.e., <0.07 g water/g dry polymer electrolyte), ionic conductivity depends nonlinearly on water uptake, with the initial sorbed water weakly affecting conductivity. With additional increases in swelling, more significant increases in conductivity were observed. Remarkably, changes in conductivity induced by water sorption were correlated with the number of water molecules per lithium ion, with the normalized molar conductivity of different samples effectively collapsing onto one another until this unit of hydration exceeded the solvation number of lithium ions under aqueous conditions. Furthermore, these results provide important knowledge regarding the effects of trace water contamination on conductivity measurements in polymer electrolytes and demonstrate that the lithium-ion solvation number marks a key transition point regarding the influence of water on ion transport in ion-containing polymers.

Porous Two-dimensional Iron-Cyano Nanosheets for High-rate Electrochemical Nitrate Reduction

Ammonia (NH 3 ) is an essential ingredient in agriculture and a promising source of clean energy as a hydrogen carrier. The current major method for ammonia production, however, is the Haber–Bosch process that leads to massive energy consumption and severe environmental issues. Compared with nitrogen (N 2 ) reduction, electrochemical nitrate reduction reaction (NO 3 RR), with a higher NH 3 yield rate and Faradaic efficiency, holds promise for efficient NH 3 production under ambient conditions. To achieve efficient NO 3 RR, electrocatalysts should exhibit high selectivity and Faradaic efficiency with a high NH 3 yield rate. In this work, we developed two-dimensional (2D) iron-based cyano-coordination polymer nanosheets (Fe-cyano NSs) following in situ electrochemical treatment for high-rate NO 3 RR. Owing to the strong adsorption of nitrate on Fe0 active sites generated via topotactic conversion and in situ electroreduction, 2D Fe-cyano electrocatalyst exhibits high catalytic activity with a yield rate of 42.1 mg h –1 mgcat –1 and a Faradaic efficiency of over 90% toward NH 3 production at –0.5 V (vs reversible hydrogen electrode, RHE). Further electrochemical characterizations revealed that superhydrophilic surface and enhanced electrochemical surface area of the 2D porous nanostructures also contributed to the high-rate NO 3 RR activity. Finally, an electrolyzer toward NO 3 RR and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in a two-electrode configuration is constructed based on 2D Fe-cyano, achieving an energy efficiency of 26.2%. This work provides an alternative methodology toward topotactic conversion of transition metal nanosheets for NO 3 RR and reveals the often-overlooked contribution of hydrophilicity of the catalysts for high-rate electrocatalysis.

Nanoporous Fe 2 O 3 and Soluble Fe(II) Intermediates Accelerate the Electrodeposition of Fe in NaOH(aq)

Electrochemical conversion of iron oxide to iron metal can enable low-cost batteries for long duration energy storage and zero-emissions ironmaking for steel. Iron oxides, such as hematite, can be electrochemically reduced to metallic iron in concentrated alkaline electrolytes at modest temperatures, but the relative influences of solid-state and dissolved intermediates at practical reaction rates remains unclear. Here, in this study, we prepare a homologous set of well-defined hematite particles to measure how the nanoscale morphology of oxides controls both their reactivity and apparent reduction mechanism in concentrated hydroxide. Correlated electron microscopy and rotating-ring-disk-electrode measurements revealed that nanoporous hematite and solid intermediates formed iron via a dissolution-redeposition pathway. In contrast, dense hematite particles directly formed iron metal via reactive fracture. While previous studies on iron electrowinning have primarily emphasized the role of particle diameter at the micron scale, these results demonstrate the importance of the dissolution-redeposition pathway to support rapid reaction rates and suggest that nanoscale porosity controls iron oxide reactivity at temperatures <100 °C. Therefore, iron-oxide-to-metal electrolyzers and fast-charging iron-air batteries supported by curtailed electricity can increase the rate of metal formation by accelerating fracture and dissolution in reactant oxides.

Direct Ab Initio Simulation of the Synthesis of BaZrO 3 and the Microstructure Impacts on Proton Transport

Controlling and predicting the processing-structure-performance relationship in functional materials is a grand challenge in materials science, with important implications for a wide range of emerging applications; a high fidelity understanding of the performance impact of microstructures formed under synthesis conditions is required to develop advanced materials, such as solid-state fuel cells and electrolyzers. Using the ceramic BaZrO 3 as a case study, we directly simulate the synthesis and investigate how proton transport is dictated by microstructures. We develop a framework that couples density functional theory (DFT), machine-learning interatomic potential (MLIP) driven molecular dynamics, and grand canonical Monte Carlo to perform large-scale, microstructure-resolved, atomistic simulations of proton transport in experimentally representative polycrystalline structures. Our fully ab initio approach, using a MLIP as a proxy for DFT, allows us to quantify the competition between two distinct diffusion mechanisms: one associated with grain-boundary regions and another within grains. When the impacts of grain boundaries are taken into account, proton transport exhibits substantial deviation from the bulk oxide limit. This addresses long-standing discrepancies between theory and experiments. Our integrated approach provides atomistic insight into microstructure-dependent proton pathways in BaZrO 3 and establishes a general protocol for predicting processing-structure-performance relationships.

Increasing Iridium Oxide Activity for the Oxygen Evolution Reaction with Hafnium Modification

Synthesis and implementation of highly active, stable, and affordable electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is a major challenge in developing energy efficient and economically viable energy conversion devices such as electrolyzers, rechargeable metal-air batteries, and regenerative fuel cells. The current benchmark electrocatalyst for OER is based on iridium oxide (IrO x ) due to its superior performance and excellent stability. However, large scale applications using IrO x are impractical due to its low abundance and high cost. In this work, we report a highly active hafnium-modified iridium oxide (IrHf x O y ) electrocatalyst for OER. The IrHf x O y electrocatalyst demonstrated ten times higher activity in alkaline conditions (pH = 11) and four times higher activity in acid conditions (pH = 1) than a IrO x electrocatalyst. The highest intrinsic mass activity of the IrHf x O y catalyst in acid conditions was calculated as 6950 A gIrO x -1 at an overpotential (η) of 0.3 V. Combined studies utilizing operando surface enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) and DFT calculations revealed that the active sites for OER are the Ir-O species for both IrO x and IrHf x O y catalysts. The presence of Hf sites leads to more negative charge states on nearby O sites, and shortening the bond lengths of Ir-O, and lowering free energies for OER intermediates to accelerate the OER process.

Anodic Shock-Triggered Exsolution of Metal Nanoparticles from Perovskite Oxide

Nanoparticles decorated electrodes (NDEs) are useful in fuel cells, electrolyzers, water treatment, and chemical synthesis. Here, in this study, we show that by rapidly bringing a mixed ionic-electronic conductor outside its electrochemical stability window, one can achieve uniform dispersion of metallic nanoparticles inside its bulk and at the surface and improve its electrocatalytic performance when back under normal functional conditions. Surprisingly, this can happen under anodic as well as cathodic current/voltage shocks in an ABO 3 perovskite oxide, La 0.4 Ca 0.4 Ti 0.88 Fe 0.06 Ni 0.06 O 3-δ (LCTFN), across a wide range of H 2 /O 2 gas environments at 800 °C. One possible mechanism for bulk Fe 0 /Ni 0 precipitation under anodic shock condition is the incomplete oxygen oxidation (O 2 – → O α– , 0 < α < 2), migration and escape of oxygen to interfaces, and “whiplash” transition-metal reduction due to low electronic conductivity. We show that both cathodic and anodic shocks can produce NDEs to enhance electrocatalytic performance, potentially improving the flexibility of this approach in practical devices.

Ammonia Electrosynthesis from Nitrate Using a Ruthenium–Copper Cocatalyst System: A Full Concentration Range Study

Electrochemical synthesis of ammonia via the nitrate reduction reaction (NO3RR) has been intensively researched as an alternative to the traditional Haber–Bosch process. Most research focuses on the low concentration range representative of the nitrate level in wastewater, leaving the high concentration range, which exists in nuclear and fertilizer wastes, unexplored. The use of a concentrated electrolyte (≥1 M) for higher rate production is hampered by poor hydrogen transfer kinetics. Herein, we demonstrate that a cocatalytic system of Ru/Cu 2 O catalyst enables NO3RR at 10.0 A in 1 M nitrate electrolyte in a 16 cm 2 flow electrolyzer, with 100% faradaic efficiency toward ammonia. Detailed mechanistic studies by deuterium labeling and operando Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy allow us to probe the hydrogen transfer rate and intermediate species on Ru/Cu 2 O. Ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations reveal that adsorbed hydroxide on Ru nanoparticles increases the density of the hydrogen-bonded water network near the Cu 2 O surface, which promotes the hydrogen transfer rate. Finally, our work highlights the importance of engineering synergistic interactions in cocatalysts for addressing the kinetic bottleneck in electrosynthesis.

Theoretical Prediction and Experimental Verification of IrO x Supported on Titanium Nitride for Acidic Oxygen Evolution Reaction

Reducing iridium (Ir) catalyst loading for acidic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is a critical strategy for large-scale hydrogen production via proton exchange membrane (PEM) water electrolysis. However, simultaneously achieving high activity, long-term stability, and reduced material cost remains challenging. To address this challenge, we develop a frame-work by combining density functional theory (DFT) prediction using model surfaces and proof-of-concept experimental ver-ification using thin films and nanoparticles. DFT results predict that oxidized Ir monolayers over titanium nitride (IrO x /TiN) should display higher OER activity than IrO x while reducing Ir loading. Further, this prediction is verified by depositing Ir monolayers over TiN thin films via physical vapor deposition. The promising thin film results are then extended to commercially viable powder IrO x /TiN catalysts, which demonstrate a lower overpotential and higher mass activity than commercial IrO 2 , and a long-term stability of 250 hours to maintain a current density of 10 mA cm -2 . The superior OER performance of IrO x /TiN is further confirmed using proton exchange membrane water electrolyzer (PEMWE), which shows a lower cell voltage than commercial IrO 2 to achieve a current density of 1 A cm -2 . Both DFT and in situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy reveal that the high OER performance of IrO x /TiN strongly depends on the IrO x - TiN interaction via direct Ir-Ti bonding. This study highlights the importance of close interaction between theoretical prediction based on mechanistic understanding and experimental verification based on thin film model catalysts to facilitate the development of more practical powder IrO x /TiN catalysts with high activity and stability for acidic OER.
