Room Temperature-formed Iron-doped Nickel Hydroxide on Nickel Foam As a 3D Electrode for Low Polarized and High-current-density Oxygen Evolution

Unique room temperature-formed iron-doped nickel hydroxide on Ni foam as a 3D electrode in alkaline electrolyte offers fast gas dissipation, a high number of active sites and a high oxidation state of Ni for an improved oxidation ability for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), which delivers an OER current density of 100 mA cm-2 at an overpotential of 0.312 V and 96.3% retention after 100 h at an overpotential of 0.370 V in 1 M KOH, and 1000 mA cm-2 at an overpotential of 0.265 V in 30 wt% KOH.
