In this study, nickel foam activated by cobalt, molybdenum, and nickel phosphide nanostructures was prepared using the plasma hydrothermal method. The synthesized phosphide specimens were characterized for morphology, crystallographic structure, and electrocatalytic activity. Preliminary results showed that nickel phosphide exhibited the highest electrocatalytic activity among the other phosphides studied.
In this study, the electrocatalytic activity of nickel foam, which is activated by cobalt, molybdenum, and nickel phosphide nanostructures, is prepared by the plasma hydrothermal method for use in the release of hydrogen and oxygen. The morphology and crystallographic structure of the synthesized phosphide specimens were examined by means of scanning electron microscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction. Moreover, the electrolysis activity for these sets of specimens was investigated using the Tafel polarization curve or linear sweep voltammetry, cyclic voltammetry, as well as by means of the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy technique. Preliminary results show that nickel phosphide presents the highest electrocatalytic activity than the other phosphides developed in this research. In this regard, it presents an electrocatalytic activity to release hydrogen and oxygen of around 1.7 and 0.82 mV, which is measured at a current density of 100 mA-cm 2, respectively.
