Abstract
Mn_(y)Sb_(1-y)O_(x) powders with a series of compositions were evaluated as catalysts for chemical water oxidation in aqueous perchloric, sulfuric, or methanesulfonic acid. O₂(g) evolved spontaneously over Mn_(y)Sb_(1-y)O_(x) catalyst powders that had been suspended in solutions that were pre-loaded with Ce⁴⁺ ions. The rate of O₂ evolution depended on the amount, as well as the oxidation state, of the Mn in the powder. The highest O₂ evolution rate was observed from the most Mn-rich catalyst, which had an effective surface oxidation state of Mn²⋅⁹⁺ in its rest state. The facile synthetic accessibility of such catalysts in powder form constitutes a step toward replacing Ir or Ru in Ce-mediated oxygen evolution in decoupled water splitting systems, as well as toward developing inks of earth-abundant catalysts for preparation of catalyst-coated membranes used in conventional proton-exchange membrane electrolyzers.
