Study on the corrosion resistance of vanadium-based V3TiNi0.56Crx(x=0,0.2,0.4,0.6)/NiMoW composite cathode for hydrogen evolution
This article mainly studied the influence of Cr element on the electrocatalytic performance and corrosion resistance of vanadium-based V3TiNi0.56Crx(x=0,0.2,0.4,0.6)/NiMoW composite cathode for hydrogen evolution.The phase,morphology,electrocatalytic performance,and corrosion resistance of V3TiNi0.56Crx(x=0,0.2,0.4,0.6)/NiMoW alloy during the electrocatalytic process is analyzed.A passiv-ation film is formed on the surface of the matrix alloy,which can create a passivation zone in the elec-trochemical corrosion process of the matrix material.It is considered to contain Ni and Cr interstitial substituents.The electrocatalytic ability of vanadium-based composite cathode for hydrogen evolution slightly decreases.The self-corrosion current decreases by 3.61 mA/cm and the self-corrosion potential shifts forward by 0.154 V,which is calculated by the polarization curve extrapolation method.After long-term electrolysis,the amount of gaps formed on its surface decrease,and only slight changes exis-ted in the amplitude of current density change,indicating that its corrosion resistance and long-term sta-bility have been improved.
