Abstract
The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) on IrO 2–Ta 2O 5 mixed oxide electrodes in H 2SO 4 solution was studied by performing quasi-stationary current-potential and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements. The uncompensated resistance corrected Tafel lines displayed two distinct linear regions, with one of the slope close to 60 mV dec −1 in the low potential region and the other close to 130 mV dec −1 in the high potential region. The kinetics equations based on the proposed OER mechanism were derived and were used to simulate the current-potential curve. A mathematical deduction of EIS data was also carried out based on one state-variable theory. Both the polarization curve and impedance spectra were well approximated by kinetics analysis.
