abstract = {The rotating disk electrode (RDE) is a well-known and
established electrochemical tool for evaluating typical
powdery electrocatalyst platforms such as platinum supported
on carbon black. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said of
the iridium-based catalysts typically used in polymer
electrolyte membrane (PEM) water electrolyzers. The
challenge essentially relies on three aspects: a) high
anodic overpotentials which fatally destroy any electrode
substrate; b) low loading RDE-inks for catalyst screenings
may show strong sedimentation c) iridium does not show
defined peaks during cyclic voltammetry. With this work, a
newly developed method is presented which allows the
characterization of the electrocatalytic properties of
iridium based electrocatalysts in a true RDE configuration.
Here we aimed to access the electrochemistry of various
commercial iridium-based catalysts with different
structures. We show that the stability of glassy carbon RDE
and of carbon black, added to the ink in order to stabilize
the dispersion is sufficient during the electrochemical
testing protocol used. Reproducibility of activity results
obtained on various samples is increased by stabilizing the
dispersions with carbon black, resulting in reproducible and
homogeneous catalyst thin films.},
