Synergetic Cobalt-Copper-Based Bimetal-Organic Framework Nanoboxes toward Efficient Electrochemical Oxygen Evolution

Weiren Cheng et al.

Summary: Novel CoCu-based bimetallic metal-organic framework nanoboxes (CoCu-MOF NBs) were reported as promising catalysts for efficient electrochemical oxygen evolution reaction (OER), showing excellent activity and stability. The high OER activity of CoCu-MOF NBs is believed to be attributed to the post-formed CoCu-based oxyhydroxide analogue during OER, which promotes fast OER kinetics through electronic synergy between Co and neighbouring Cu atoms.

Modulating metal-organic frameworks for catalyzing acidic oxygen evolution for proton exchange membrane water electrolysis

Xiaomin Xu et al.

Summary: Proton exchange membrane (PEM) water electrolysis is a promising technology for green hydrogen production, but the slow reaction kinetics of the anodic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in an acidic environment hinders its practical viability. Noble metal-based catalysts like iridium and ruthenium are effective for the acidic OER, but their low abundance and high cost pose challenges for their use in PEM electrolyzers. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as a platform for designing efficient and cost-effective acidic OER catalysts, with promising future research directions towards better catalysts for operation in acidic environments and PEM devices.
