초록

We report an oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalyst prepared by the incorporation of cobalt-doped iron phosphate on stainless steel mesh (SSM) through a one-step hydrothermal method. Compared to the catalytic property of bare SSM, our OER catalyst (0.84-CoFePi) showed a 42% improvement in current density at the potential of 1.9 V vs. RHE, and the onset potential was decreased by 26.5 mV. Furthermore, the loss in current density of bulk electrolysis after 12 h in 1 M KOH (pH 14) solution and 0.0441 wt% H2SO4 (pH ≈ 3) containing 0.1 M NaCl solution was negligible (3.1% and 3.2%, respectively). Moreover, our cobalt-doped iron phosphate on SSM exhibits the dramatic improvement in corrosion resistance to a basic, mild acidic solution and chloride ions compared to bare SSM. © 2022 by the authors.
