Nanosized (Ni_1-x Zn _x )Fe₂O₄ for water oxidation.

ABSTRACT: Performing water splitting for H₂ production is an interesting method to store different energies. For water splitting, an efficient and stable water-oxidizing catalyst is important. Ni-Fe (hydr)oxides are among the best catalysts for water oxidation in alkaline electrolytes. An Fe amount higher than 50% in Ni-Fe (hydr)oxides increases the overpotential for water oxidation. Thus, Ni-Fe (hydr)oxides with a high ratio of Fe to Ni have rarely been focused on for water oxidation. Herein, we report water oxidation using nanosized (Ni_1-x Zn _x )Fe₂O₄. The catalyst was characterized via some methods and tested at pH values of 3, 7 and 11 in phosphate buffer. Nanosized (Ni_1-x Zn _x )Fe
