- Description
- Amorphous Ru-Pi nanoclusters deposited on PEDOT modified carbon fibre paper electrode have been investigated as a potential oxygen evolution electrocatalyst. CFP/PEDOT/Ru-Pi electrode was prepared by electrodeposition of Ru-Pi nanoclusters on PEDOT decorated CFP using cyclic voltammetry (CV). Field emission scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (FESEM-EDS), attenuated total reflection with Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were used for physicochemical characterization. Linear sweep voltammetric (LSV) studies corroborated that CFP/PEDOT/Ru-Pi has exhibited higher oxidation peak current when compared to other modified electrodes. CFP/PEDOT/Ru-Pi electrode has displayed better catalytic activity towards oxygen evolution reaction at low onset and over potential. The modified electrode has also offered better stability towards the oxidation reaction in phosphate buffer solution (PBS) and the working stability of these electrodes were determined using LSV and CV. 2021 Elsevier B.V.
