Description

Iridium oxide (IrO2) is a black, insoluble compound that finds applications in various fields due to its unique properties. It can be synthesized through different methods, including thermal decomposition of ammonium hexachloro-iridate(IV) and electrochemical oxidation of metallic iridium. IrO2 exhibits high electrical conductivity, chemical inertness, and excellent catalytic activity, making it suitable for applications such as electrocatalysis, sensors, and coatings. The material has garnered significant research interest for its potential in energy storage and conversion technologies, particularly in oxygen evolution reactions (OER) for water splitting and fuel cells. Researchers continue to explore its properties and synthesize new forms of IrO2 to enhance its performance and broaden its applications.'
