Pursuing highly active and stable Ru-based catalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) under acidic conditions is important in advancing proton exchange membrane (PEM) water electrolyzers. Unfortunately, inadequate stability, especially a large current density of catalysts, still hinders its practical application. Herein, we report La doping strategy that simultaneously enhances both OER activity stability RuO2 media. The introduction into induces tensile strain, which effectively weakens covalency Ru–O bonds. This structural modification significantly inhibits Ru dissolution, thereby substantially enhancing RuO2.

Proton-exchange membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE) holds great promise for hydrogen production applications. However, the reliance of PEMWE electrodes on high loadings expensive iridium poses a significant barrier to their commercial viability. Therefore, development high-performance oxygen evolution catalysts with low content is critical importance. In this research, porous antimony tin oxide (ATO) conductive support particle assembly aggregate structure was fabricated by carbon template removal method. ATO-supported IrO2 exhibits significantly improved reaction (OER) activity, much lower overpotential compared unsupported catalyst. Moreover, it achieves 1.8 V at 2 A cm-2 an ultralow loading (0.3 mgIr cm-2) proton-exchange electrolyzer. Characterization techniques and density functional theory calculations have elucidated that enhanced performance attributed morphology ATO strong metal oxide-support interaction between support. These findings validate practicality nanostructured antimony-tin-oxide-supported applications offer pathway design low-Ir OER catalysts.
