Morphological control by SBA-15: The performance of catalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) depends strongly on their structural and morphological properties. An IrO2 nanomaterial with a morphology suitable for the OER is prepared by using a synthetic scheme involving a zeolite template, and shows enhanced activity and stability compared to IrO2 fabricated by the traditional Adams-fusion method.
