INVESTIGATION OF ELECTROCATALYTIC ACTIVITY OF Ni–Mo THIN FILMS FOR WATER ELECTROLYSIS

The paper presents data on the study of electrocatalytic properties Ni–Mo thin films in neutral and alkaline media, obtained as a result electrochemical synthesis. Comparative characteristics deposited Ni-Mo various substrates different compositions with catalytic activity Ni, Pt St-3 were determined by method recording linear polarization curves determining slope Tafel curves. highest was exhibited Ni73.5Mo13.3O13.2 nickel substrate that not annealed. dependence microhardness their composition determined, Mo content 38% had microhardness. It has been established corrosion resistance depends molybdenum them, an increase its alloys increases resistance, but decreases
