Area of Science:

Materials Science
Electrochemistry
Chemical Engineering

Background:

Electrode binders are critical for high-performance water electrolysis, but their role is underexplored.
Current research primarily focuses on electrocatalysts, neglecting binder optimization.

Purpose of the Study:

To investigate the in situ incorporation of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) as a multifunctional binder for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) electrodes.
To enhance electrochemical active sites, mass transfer, and mechanical/chemical robustness of OER electrodes.

Main Methods:

Co-deposition of PTFE with NiFe-layered double hydroxide (NiFe-LDH) onto nickel foam (NF).
Fabrication of NiFe-LDH@PTFE/NF electrodes for alkaline water electrolysis.

Main Results:

The NiFe-LDH@PTFE/NF electrode exhibited exceptional long-term stability with a potential decay rate of 0.034 mV h⁻¹ at 500 mA cm⁻² for 1000 hours.
An alkaline water electrolyzer using this electrode required only 1.584 V at 500 mA cm⁻² and maintained high energy efficiency over 1000 hours.

Conclusions:

PTFE acts as a multifunctional binder, improving electrode performance and durability.
This approach offers a new strategy for stabilizing active sites and developing robust electrodes for OER and other electrocatalytic applications.
