Description
Summary:In this study, we proposed and demonstrated combinatorial evaluation substrates, which were fabricated by micro electro mechanical systems (MEMS) process, for brine electrolysis. Proposed evaluation substrate has 9 electrode catalyst samples on the glass substrate. Ir-Ru/Ti and Ir-Ru-Ti/Ti electrode catalyst samples were prepared by a combinatorial co-sputtering system. We evaluated the maximum current density of polarization curves and the durability during brine electrolysis. In the case of binary Ir-Ru/Ti evaluation substrate (composition of Ru ranged from 35.1 to 58.8 at.%.), the maximum current density increased with increasing Ru-content. From these results, we confirmed the usability of proposed combinatorial evaluation substrate for the brine electrolysis. Finally, we evaluated the electrochemical characteristics of 9 Ir-Ru-Ti/Ti samples. Their electrochemical characteristics depend on alloy composition.
