Published: Sept. 2, 2024

Abstract Given the pronounced dissolution of electrocatalysts in acidic environments, quest for effective oxygen evolution reaction (OER) suitable proton exchange membrane (PEM) water electrolyzers persists as a formidable challenge. In this investigation, catalysts are synthesized by creating vacancies within various metal oxides (Nb 2 O 5‐x , Ta ZrO 2‐x TiO ) through plasma‐assisted method, thereby facilitating immobilization IrO onto these defect‐rich surfaces. The findings unveil that /Nb manifests reduced overpotentials during OER, achieving an overpotential down to 225 mV@10 mA cm −2 coupled with outstanding durability at multicurrent densities exceeding 200 h, attributed strong oxide‐support interaction (SOSI) between catalyst and Nb substrate. Density functional theory (DFT) computations uncover intensified binding affinities thus modulating central energy levels Ir's d orbitals toward favorable OER conditions, consequently bolstering electrocatalytic activity stability composite catalyst. Furthermore, employing PEM electrolyzer anode enables consistent operation 1000 Ir content only 0.2852 mg consumption 4.34 kWh Nm −3 H . This achievement substantially lowers cost hydrogen production US$ 0.96 per kilogram, underscoring its potential practical applications.
