ABSTRACT
In electrocatalytic water oxidation, the surface reconstruction of electrocatalysts is a common issue due to the applied anodic potential. The study of the fundamentals of catalyst structure transformation and the relationship between structure and performance is important. Herein, we designed two cobalt selenites (CoSeO3 and CoSeO3·2H2O) with different structures for comparative studies. The cross channels in layered CoSeO3 provide space for easy surface reconstruction. The reasons are defined by a series of electrochemical studies, indicating a larger ion diffusion coefficient, more surface contacting OH- anions and faster charge transfer kinetics in CoSeO3. This work provided a paradigm for studying the influence of geometric structure on pre-catalyst reconstruction.
