Problems solved by technology

Iridium and its oxide electrodes are the traditional and most commonly used electrodes for oxygen evolution reaction. However, as a noble metal, iridium is expensive, has limited resources, and suffers serious performance loss during long-term operation, which hinders photolysis of water and metal-air Commercial development in fields such as batteries
In view of the serious shortcomings of iridium and its oxide electrodes, such as high price, limited resources, and serious performance loss during long-term operation, studies in recent years have found that some transition metal elements (such as manganese and nickel) oxide materials exhibit certain oxygen evolution properties. However, the transition metal oxide oxygen precipitation overpotential is usually high, the effect is not ideal, and the steps are cumbersome, making it difficult to achieve large-scale production
