Apstrakt

The example of the procedure for the correct determination of the parameters of hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), the exchange current density (j_o) and relaxation time (t_o) for intermediate (adsorbed hydrogen, H_ads) adsorption at modified porous Ni-based electrode are presented in this work. Such a procedure is applicable for the HER at all electrode materials. The value of j_o was obtained from the intercept at h = 0 mV from the h vs. log (R_ct^-1) dependence (h - overpotential), while the value of t_owas obtained from the intercept at h = 0 mV from the logt vs. h dependence. It was shown that for the correct determination of j_o and t_o,it is necessary to correct applied h for the jR_s drop, by recording current density (j) for applied h and correcting it for jR_s
