Abstract
In this study, high efficiency of a ternary electrocatalyst NiFeMo electrodeposited on a nickel coated nickel foam was researched to be used as cathode material in AEM alkaline water electrolyser. The electrocatalytic activity was studied with electrochemical techniques such as linear sweep voltammetry (LSV), Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS), Cyclic Voltammetry and Chronopotentiometry. Also, Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and X-ray Diffraction (XRD) analysis were used to characterize the surface morphology which showed successful deposition of the catalysts. Tafel slopes were obtained as 212 mV dec−1, 216 mV dec−1 and 185 mV dec−1 for foam, #Ni and NiFeMo#Ni respectively. In addition, the catalyst was tested in a glass cell with a Fumasep membrane and the volume of hydrogen gas obtained was the highest compared to the foam and Ni.
期刊介绍:
The objective of the International Journal of Hydrogen Energy is to facilitate the exchange of new ideas, technological advancements, and research findings in the field of Hydrogen Energy among scientists and engineers worldwide. This journal showcases original research, both analytical and experimental, covering various aspects of Hydrogen Energy. These include production, storage, transmission, utilization, enabling technologies, environmental impact, economic considerations, and global perspectives on hydrogen and its carriers such as NH3, CH4, alcohols, etc.
The utilization aspect encompasses various methods such as thermochemical (combustion), photochemical, electrochemical (fuel cells), and nuclear conversion of hydrogen, hydrogen isotopes, and hydrogen carriers into thermal, mechanical, and electrical energies. The applications of these energies can be found in transportation (including aerospace), industrial, commercial, and residential sectors.
