Active and highly durable supported catalysts for proton exchange membrane electrolysers.

The design and development of supported catalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is a promising pathway to reducing iridium loading in proton exchange membrane water electrolysers. However, supported catalysts often suffer from poor activity and durability, particularly when deployed in membrane electrode assemblies. In this work, we deploy iridium coated hollow titanium dioxide particles as OER catalysts to achieve higher Ir mass activities than the leading commercial catalysts.
