| Abstract [eng] |
Coatings consisting of cobalt, nickel and iron (Co-Ni-Fe) oxides were electrophoretically deposited on AISI 304-type stainless steel using aqueous suspensions without any binder. The synthesis of Co-Ni-Fe oxides was carried out by the thermal decomposition of metal nitrates with various molar ratios at 673 K. Structural and morphological analysis confirmed that the deposited coatings were mainly composed of spinel-type oxides with predominantly round-shaped particles. The prepared electrodes were examined for their electrocatalytic performance in oxygen generation under alkaline conditions. Various electrochemical techniques indicated the influence of iron content on the electrochemical activity of Co-Ni-Fe oxides, with the calculated values of the Tafel constant being in the range of 52–59 mV dec−1. Long-term oxygen generation for 24 h at 1.0 V revealed very good mechanical and electrocatalytic stability of the prepared electrodes, since they were able to maintain up to 98% of their initial activity. |
