The direct synthesis of polyaniline-TiO2 nanocomposite coatings on aluminum alloy 3004 (AA3004) surface has been investigated by using the galvanostatic method. The synthesized coatings were characterized by FT-IR, SEM-EDX, SEM and AFM. Optical absorption spectroscopy reveals the formation of the emeraldine oxidation state form of polyaniline-TiO2 nanocomposite. The corros...

the kinetics of hydrogen evolution reaction (her) was studied in 1m naoh at various temperatures (298 to 358 k) on ni-p-c (composite electrodes. the electrochemical efficiency of the electrodes has been evaluated on the basis of electrochemical data obtained from the steady-state polarization tafel curves, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (eis) and cyclic voltammetry (cv) in 1m naoh solut...

In this study Ni catalyst have been activated during hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) by adding Mo ions into the alkaline electrolyte. After dissolving different amounts of ammonium molybdate in the 1M NaOH as electrolyte, Ni catalyst was used as cathode for HER. Afterwards a comparison between hydrogen overpotential measured in Ni catalyst with and without in situ activation has been made; th...

In this study ternary Ni-P-CeO2 catalysts were first synthesized by the Co-electrodeposition method on a copper substrate and then characterized by means of microstructural and electrochemical techniques toward a hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Also, for comparison other catalysts such as Ni-CeO2, Ni-P, and Ni were prepared and characterized by the same methods. The microstructure of the inv...

Electrocatalytic activity for the hydrogen evolution reaction on Ni–Co–LaNi5 composite electrodes prepared by electrochemical codeposition technique was evaluated. The relationship between the current density for hydrogen evolution reaction and the amount of LaNi5 particles in Ni–Co baths is like the well-known “volcano plot”. The Surface morphology and microstructure of Ni–Co–LaNi5 coatings we...

in the present study, ni-p-cnt composite coating was successfully fabricated via electroless plating. scanning electron microscopy (sem) was used to characterize the coatings. the effect of cnts concentration in the bath on its content in the composite coatings was studied. furthermore, the corrosion behaviour of the coatings with different contents of cnts was evaluated using tafel polarizatio...

Abstract By the example of study AISI 1016 steel corrosion in HCl solution, potentialities various methods for determining currents are studied. The rate without polarization is determined using method measuring ohmic resistance test specimen. It shown that iterative used analysis potentiodynamic curves vicinity potential avoids complications arise when Tafel extrapolation absence pronounced se...
