Abstract
AbstractIn this study, the influence of histidine as an electrolyte additive on the electrochemical performance of Al electrodes in 4.0 M KOH electrolyte is studied by measuring open‐circuit potential–time curves, potentiodynamic polarization, potentiostatic oxidation, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The surface morphology of Al electrodes is characterized by scanning electron microscopy. The results show that the battery performance is significantly improved by adding histidine. Samples with 50 mM histidine exhibit the highest corrosion resistance and discharging current density among all the specimens, with the corrosion current density (Icorr) being 7.471 mA/cm2 and corrosion inhibition efficiency (η) being 43.33%.
