摘    要:以硫脲为硫源、LaCl3为添加剂,采用改进的Watt浴体系在泡沫镍基体上电沉积制备Ni-S涂层电极,采用SEM观察涂层表面形貌,采用XRD分析涂层结构,电化学测试方法研究涂层的电化学行为。研究结果表明:La3+在电沉积过程中对晶粒生长起阻碍作用,能够促进沉积层的晶粒细化,同时增大了沉积层的比表面积。所制备的涂层在碱性介质下具有较高的析氢活性和耐腐蚀性能。当镀液中LaCl3质量浓度为3 g/L时,制备的Ni-S涂层析氢过电位降低约38 mV,电极反应活化能为35.522 kJ/mol,在长时间水电解实验中具有较高的电化学活性和稳 定性。

Abstract:

Nickel-sulphur coating electrodes were prepared on foam nickel substrates by electrodeposition method in a modified Watts using thiourea (TU) and LaCl3 as sulphur source and additive, respectively. Adsorption effect of LaCl3 on the electrochemical activities, grain sizes, textures and microstructure of Ni-S coatings were characterized by means of SEM, XRD and electrochemical methods. The results show that LaCl3 can inhibit growth of coatings. The Ni-S coatings obtained from bath containing LaCl3 have larger surface area and much smaller grain sizes than those from the bath without additive. Ni-S alloy coating as a cathode for alkaline water electrolysis exhibits higher hydrogen evolution activities and better corrosion resistant performance. The hydrogen evolution overpotential of Ni-S coatings deposited at 3 g/L LaCl3 is 38 mV lower than that of the bath without additive. In the meantime, the Ni-S coatings have lower activation energy, which is 35.522 kJ/mol, and high electrochemical stability during long-term electrolysis.
