Abstract:The intrinsic ability of defects within the electrocatalysts can be judiciously utilized in designing robust electrocatalysts for efficient seawater oxidation. Herein, we have fabricated a novel tungsten oxide phosphate (W 12 PO 38.5 ) with optimized sulfur doping triggering the insertion of a large number of defect sites. This allows for boosted OER performance in alkaline freshwater as well as seawater, avoiding the unwanted chlorine evolution reaction. The optimized electrocatalyst achieved high current den… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
