Shaped Ir-Ni bimetallic nanoparticles for minimizing Ir utilization in oxygen evolution reaction

Chem Commun (Camb). 2016 Apr 25;52(32):5641-4. doi: 10.1039/c6cc00053c.

Abstract

Shaped Ir-Ni bimetallic nanoparticles were synthesized and used for electrocatalytic oxygen evolution reaction (OER). The obtained bimetallic nanoparticles showed significantly enhanced Ir mass activity and durability compared with Ir nanoparticles.
