Title: Standardizing OER Electrocatalyst Benchmarking in Aqueous Electrolytes: Comprehensive Guidelines for Accelerated Stress Tests and Backing Electrodes
In this study, we explore the complex interplay of backing electrode degradation mechanisms and accelerated stress test conditions during the oxygen evolution reaction. Our findings not only shed light on these mechanisms but also set the stage for more effective benchmarking strategies for future catalysts. By proposing optimal testing conditions and backing electrodes, we're contributing to the development of standardized testing protocols. This brings us a step closer to improving catalyst lifetime estimation, a crucial factor in advancing real-world applications.
