Transition Metal-Based Electrocatalysts for Oxygen-Evolution Reaction beyond Ni, Co, Fe
H.L.S. Santos, J.A. Dias, M.A.S. Andrade Jr, L.H. Mascaro
Nickel, Cobalt, and iron-based electrocatalyst are the most widely used materials applied to highly efficient oxygen evolution reaction. This chapter focuses on the progress of transition metal based electrocatalysts other than Ni, Co, and Fe for this application, such as alloys, oxides, perovskite oxides, also the transition metal carbides, phosphides, and nitrides which present very competitive properties to these most exploited metal-based materials.
