Abstract:
      The work aims to improve the catalytic hydrogen evolution of Fe electrode. The amorphous Ni-Fe-P coatings were electrodeposited on the surface of Fe substrate at a lower temperature. The effects of electrodeposition current density and de-alloying time on the Ni-Fe-P/Fe electrode in alkaline electrolyte were investigated. The morphology, element distribution and phase structure of the coatings were analyzed by scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction. A series of performance tests were carried out on the electrode by electrochemical workstation in alkaline solution. The Ni-Fe-P amorphous alloy coating with dense and uniform element distribution was successfully prepared on the surface of Fe electrode at 10 ℃. The electrocatalytic performance of the obtained Ni-Fe-P/Fe electrodes was better than that of the Fe electrode. The overpotential of the Ni-Fe-P/Fe electrode prepared under the condition of J=30 mA/cm2 at a hydrogen evolution current density of 10 mA/cm2 was 174.2 mV, about 466.2 mV lower than that of the Fe electrode. For the Ni-Fe-P/Fe electrode prepared under the same conditions, after 240 s de-alloying treatment, the overpotential of the electrode was only 121.6 mV, about 518.8 mV lower than that of the Fe electrode. The electrodeposited Ni-Fe-P amorphous alloy coating can significantly improve the hydrogen evolution performance of the Fe electrode. With the increase of the deposition current density, the hydrogen evolution overpotential of the Ni-Fe-P/Fe electrode decreases, and the electric double layer capacitance and the electrochemical working surface area increase. After proper de-alloying of the electrode, the three-dimensional porous structure formed can reduce the charge transfer resistance of the electrode and the hydrogen evolution overpotential of the electrode.
