Visualization of aquaionic splitting via iron corrosion

Abstract We report a water decomposition mode called ‘Aquaionic Splitting (AiS)’ by means of iron corrosion in aqueous solution. In this paper, we investigated the phenomenon by controlling the reaction between iron and water. A pseudo-sacrificial protection method with oil paint was employed to sel...
