The effect of Fe on chemical stability and oxygen evolution performance of high surface area SrTix-1FexO3-δ mixed ionic-electronic conductors in alkaline media
Abstract
Development of environmentally friendly, high performing oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalysts is an important research challenge. In this work, iron doped strontium titanates with a general formula SrTi1-xFexO3-δ (x = 0.35, 0.50, 0.70, 0.90, and 1.00) denoted as STFx, were synthesized via a solid state reaction technique and characterized in terms of oxygen evolution reaction electrocatalysis in an alkaline electrolyte (0.1 M KOH). The produced powders were characterized by a high specific surface area (>20 m2 g−1), beneficial for OER. The evaluation of specific activity indicated the following trend of increasing performance: STF35 < STF50 < STF70 < SFO < STF90. The lowest overpotential at 10 mAcm−2 GEO of 410 mV (350 mV at 25 μA cm−2OX) was achieved by STF90 with the corresponding Tafel slope of 60 mV dec−1. The two materials with the highest Fe content (i.e. STF90 and SFO) showed, however, poor chemical stability in alkaline solution demonstrated by the dissolution of Sr. Based on the good electrochemical performance (~460 mV at 10 mA cm−2GEO, ~405 mV at 25 μA cm−2OX) and chemical stability for at least 30 days (no Sr dissolution) of STF50, it can be considered an interesting, working at room temperature OER catalyst based on non-toxic and abundant elements.
