Co3O4 and Co- Based Spinel Oxides Bifunctional Oxygen Electrodes

Year: 2010

Type: article

Abstract: Many spinel cobaltite oxides meet the requirement for a wide range of electrochemical reactions. These materials have largely been investigated as electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) or oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). The objective of this article is to summarize the studies available in the literature on electrochemical and electrocatalytic properties of cobaltite spinel oxides towards the OER and ORR in alkaline media. The main focus of this review is on the recent investigations dealing with the performance of Co3O4 and Co-based spinel oxides as the oxygen electrodes in the light of the earlier published work.
