Abstract
Abstract The amorphous Ni-Mo-W alloy coating with high HER (hydrogen evolution reaction) activity was obtained by pulse plating. In view of HER overpotential, the optimum electrodeposition conditions to prepare Ni-Mo-W coating in pulse plating process were determined, e.g. Na 2 WO 4 ·2H 2 O concentration, average current density and duty cycle. Correspondingly, the effects of molybdenum and the tungsten contents on the compositions and the components of Ni-Mo-W coatings were investigated systematically. The results show that adding tungsten into Ni-Mo binary alloy coating could increase the HER activity effectively (η 200 = 80 mV) and the amorphous microstructure of Ni-Mo-W coating mainly depends on the molybdenum content. After long-term electrolysis, compared with amorphous Ni-Mo coating, the electrochemical stability of amorphous Ni-Mo-W coating is improved to some extent due to the poor dissolution of molybdenum and tungsten.
