Zusammenfassung: | Summary
A wide compositional range of Pd‐Ni/Cd on polypyrrole (PPy)‐modified Ti plates (Pd‐Ni/Cd/PPy/Ti) was fabricated via electrochemical deposition. The hydrogen absorption properties of the prepared Pd‐Ni/Cd/PPy/Ti electrodes were evaluated using cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry in acidic media. The optimal Pd36‐Ni7/Cd57/PPy/Ti electrode achieved a hydrogen storage capacity of 331.3 mC cm−2 mg−1 and an H/Pd ratio of 0.77. The enhancement of the hydrogen storage was attributed to a synergistic effect between the Pd‐Ni/Cd catalysts. The surface morphology, crystallinity, and chemical composition of the Pd‐Ni/Cd/PPy/Ti electrode were characterized using scanning electron microscope (SEM), X‐ray diffraction (XRD), and X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), respectively. Hydrogen spillover occurred on the trimetallic catalysts, and secondary hydrogen spillover occurred on the PPy/Ti support. The enhanced hydrogen sorption capacity was due to both the synergistic effect of the trimetallic catalysts and the assistance of PPy, making Pd‐Ni/Cd/PPy/Ti a promising hydrogen storage material.
A novel Pd‐Ni/Cd loaded PPy/Ti composite electrode was prepared for hydrogen storage.
The optimal Pd36‐Ni7/Cd57/PPy/Ti electrode has a H/Pd ratio of 0.77 and a hydrogen storage capacity of 331.3 mC cm−2 mg−1.
Good hydrogen adsorption properties were due to the synergetic effect of Pd, Ni, and Cd and assistance of PPy. |
