► OCP of H2O2 is a mixed potential of H2O2 electrooxidation and electroreduction. ► OCP of H2O2 is closer to the equilibrium potential of H2O2 electrooxidation. ► OCP of H2O2 is around 0.8V in acidic solution and around 0V in basic solution. The open circuit potentials (OCPs) of H2O2 at Pt, Pd, Au,...
