ABSTRACT
Green hydrogen production through electrochemical overall water splitting has suffered from sluggish oxygen evolution reaction (OER) kinetics, inferior conversion efficiency, and high cost. Herein, ultrafine PtIr clusters are synthesized via an electrodeposition method and decorated on the Co3O4 nanoflowers assembled by nanowires (PtIr-Co3O4). The encouraging performances in electrochemical OER and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) are achieved over the PtIr-Co3O4 catalyst, with the overpotentials as low as 410 and 237â
mV at 100â
mA cm-2, respectively, outperforming the commercial IrO2 and Pt/C catalysts. Due to the ultralow loading of PtIr clusters, the PtIr-Co3O4 catalyst exhibits 1270â
A gIr -1 for OER at the overpotential of 400â
mV. Our detailed analyses also show that the strong interactions between the ultrafine PtIr clusters and the Co3O4 nanoflowers enable the PtIr-Co3O4 catalyst to afford 10â
mA cm-2 for the overall water splitting at the potential of 1.57â
V, accompanied by high durability for 100â
h.
