Abstract
Proton-conducting polymer electrolyte membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE) is a vital clean hydrogen generation technology that can ease the energy crisis resulting from global warming and dependence on fossil fuels. However, the long-term catalytic activity and stability of the extensively studied benchmark RuO2 catalysts in an acidic environment is insufficient for large-scale renewable energy conversion devices. Thus, significant recent efforts have focused on identifying and exploring acid-stable Ru-based electrocatalysts with low overpotential and high stability for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). This review offers a comprehensive analysis of recent advances in Ru-based acidic OER catalysts, starting with a detailed understanding of design principles for Ru-based catalysts, encompassing the reaction mechanisms, degradation mechanism, and activity-stability relationships. Subsequently, advanced Ru-based catalysts regulating strategy are into four categories, within each category, a critical assessment of catalyst design and synthesis, electrocatalytic performance, along with typical examples and existing challenges. Representative examples in practical PEMWE are also provided to illustrate these advancements. Finally, the challenges and prospects for future studies on the development of Ru-based acidic OER catalysts towards the ultimate application of PEMWE are also examined.
期刊介绍：
Progress in Materials Science is a journal that publishes authoritative and critical reviews of recent advances in the science of materials. The focus of the journal is on the fundamental aspects of materials science, particularly those concerning microstructure and nanostructure and their relationship to properties. Emphasis is also placed on the thermodynamics, kinetics, mechanisms, and modeling of processes within materials, as well as the understanding of material properties in engineering and other applications.
The journal welcomes reviews from authors who are active leaders in the field of materials science and have a strong scientific track record. Materials of interest include metallic, ceramic, polymeric, biological, medical, and composite materials in all forms.
Manuscripts submitted to Progress in Materials Science are generally longer than those found in other research journals. While the focus is on invited reviews, interested authors may submit a proposal for consideration. Non-invited manuscripts are required to be preceded by the submission of a proposal. Authors publishing in Progress in Materials Science have the option to publish their research via subscription or open access. Open access publication requires the author or research funder to meet a publication fee (APC).
Abstracting and indexing services for Progress in Materials Science include Current Contents, Science Citation Index Expanded, Materials Science Citation Index, Chemical Abstracts, Engineering Index, INSPEC, and Scopus.
