Prospects for the use of manganites in various areas of modern technologies require comprehensive studies of their physical and chemical properties. La0.9Mn1.1O3 (LMO) ceramics have been synthesized at an annealing temperature t(ann) of 1150 degrees C with further post-annealing at 1250, 1350, and 1450 degrees C. As t(ann) increases, the structure symmetry changes, and both the crystallite size and chemical defects increase. The post-annealing, on one hand, leads to a dramatic reduction of the magnetocaloric effect (MCE) |-Delta Smax(M)| from 3.50 to 0.75 J (kg K)(-1) at 2 T and a Curie temperature T-C from 227 to 113 K with increasing t(ann). On the other hand, an external hydrostatic high-pressure P works oppositely enhancing ferromagnetic interactions. The saturation of -Delta Smax(M) and T-C is already achieved at a relatively low P of approximate to 0.4 GPa. LMO-1150 exhibits the best magnetocaloric characteristics compared with other studied samples. Moreover, the electrochemical characteristics of the LMO materials as electrocatalysts for overall water splitting (OER process) and features of their transformation in different 0.5 M K2SO4, 0.5 M K2HPO4, and 0.1 M K2B4O7 electrolytes have been studied thoroughly. After electrocatalysis of LMO, the magnetization M decreases and T-C remains, which makes it possible to control the depletion of electrodes and predict their working time based on the magnetic measurements. All samples show the best OER activity in the 0.5 M K2HPO4 media. The obtained results demonstrate the ways for controlling the MCE of LMO under changing internal and external conditions, and an evaluation of the possibilities for their OER applications in electrocatalysts.
