What is it about?

This review offers a comprehensive overview of recent strategies that focused on increasing the selectivity, reactivity, durability, and corrosion resistance of OER electrocatalysts. The reviewed design strategies include electronic modulation, oxygen vacancies creation, amorphous and porous structure design, corrosion-resistant passive layer decoration, and the creation of strong catalyst-support interactions. Future trends for anode materials and electrocatalytic research are also presented.

Why is it important?

There are no reviews that have focused explicitly on a rational design of anode material that tackles electrode corrosion, and hampers the oxygen selectivity which limits the deployment of seawater in hydrogen production. Some excellent strategies have emerged in recent years; which makes it timely and necessary to summarize the advances in this research frontier.

Perspectives

We believe that this review article presents a significant contribution to the wide community, who are interested in the field of green hydrogen.
