Iridium oxide (IrOx)-based materials are the most suitable oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalysts for water electrolysis in acidic media. There is a strong demand from industry improved performance and reduction of Ir amount. Here, we report composite catalyst, IrOx–TiO2–Ti (ITOT), with high concentration active OH species mixed valence IrOx on its surface. We have discovered that obtained ITOT catalyst shows an outstanding OER activity (1.43 V vs RHE at 10 mA cm–2) Moreover, no apparent...

Abstract A safe and straightforward process was developed for electropolishing aluminum surfaces using a nonhazardous electrolyte solution, specifically ethylene glycol (EG) or propylene (PG) with NaCl, instead of perchloric acid. High-purity specimens were immersed in slowly stirred solution EG PG NaCl anodically polarized at 20–140 V 2–30 min. At an optimal voltage 40–60 V, the current density reached constant value after initial transition, resulting uniform dissolution specimen’s surface...
