Abstract

This study presents the synthesis and electrocatalytic performance of amorphous Fe–O–P nanocages derived from Fe-MOFs for water and ethylene glycol (EG) oxidation. Despite structural and compositional changes, the electrocatalyst in an electrolytic cell with Pt/C shows high activity and reduced cell voltage, efficiently generating H₂ and formic acid in a KOH–EG mixed electrolyte.
