摘 要:From an aqueous mixture of Ag(I)-EDTA complex and Ni(II) nitrate, silver and nickel particles were co-deposited on the surface of titanium substrates by the hydrothermal method using hydrazine hydrate as a reduction agent. The prepared titanium-supported nano-scale Ag and Ag-Ni particles (nano Ag/Ti, nano Ag86Ni14/Ti, nano Ag77Ni23/Ti, and nano Ag74Ni26/Ti) exhibit nanoporous 3D network textures. Their electrocatalytic activity towards hydrazine oxidation in alkaline solutions was evaluated by cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry. The results show that the four samples present a low onset potential of ca. -0.60 V vs. SCE and considerably high and stable anodic current densities for hydrazine oxidation. Among them, the nano Ag86Ni14/Ti electrode exhibits the highest anodic current density towards hydrazine oxidation, showing an increment of electro-active sites on the nano Ag86Ni14/Ti due to the addition of Ni to Ag particles.
