Abstract
  • Porous Ni electrodes were modified by electrodeposition of Ir nuclei from H2IrCl6 solutions at 70 °C, with the aim of activating them towards the hydrogen evolution reaction and comparing their performance with those of porous Ni electrodes activated by spontaneous deposition of noble metals (Ir and Ru). The current efficiency of Ir deposition was found to be very low (1% or lower, decreasing upon increasing deposition current density). Ir deposits characterised by SEM-EDX and XRD consisted of nanocrystals decorating the Ni dendrites forming the porous layers. Ir electrodeposition led to a strong activation of the hydrogen evolution reaction from aqueous 1 M NaOH. The electrocatalytic activity of the cathodes was independent of the Ir deposition charge above the minimum explored value of 1 C cm-2. This charge is estimated to correspond to the deposition of ca. 2.5 10-8 Ir moles cm-2. The kinetic parameters for hydrogen evolution were similar for porous Ni electrodes modified by either spontaneous deposition (studied in a previous work) or electrodeposition of Ir. (literal)
