This project aims to make breakthrough developments in producing high performance water splitting electrocatalysts based on high-entropy intermetallic compounds (HEIMCs) by understanding their processing-structure-catalysis relationships. The project will generate new knowledge on how to enhance that performance by the combined effect of nanoscale atomic ordering and lattice distortion via alloying. Expected outcomes will be an enhanced capacity to develop and commercialise HEIMCs with functional properties superior to current hydrogen production catalysts. Anticipated benefits will be reduced consumption of fossil fuels, development of renewable clean energy, and stimulation of economic development to Australian mining industries.
