Abstract

Firstly, the application prospect of electrolytic water reaction is introduced, and then the relevant mechanisms of hydrogen evolution reaction and oxygen evolution reaction of electrolytic water are described. The research status of catalysts for hydrogen and oxygen evolution from electrolyzed water, mainly acid oxygen evolution catalyst and basic hydrogen evolution catalyst, was introduced. Finally, a summary and prospect of the water electrolysis catalyst are given.
