JournalSource: LEGACY

Gold electroless deposition on nickel foam offers several advantages over traditional electrodeposition techniques. One of the main advantages is that it can produce uniform thickness coatings on complex shapes and geometries, such as porous and three-dimensional substrates like nickel foam. The resulting gold-nickel foam composite has high surface area and good electrical conductivity, making it suitable for various electrochemical applications, including catalysis, sensing, and energy storage.In this work we focused on the development of synthetic strategies to grow and optimize the surface coverage of gold on nickel foam and the evaluation of its suitability for the electrochemical reduction of nitrogen for ammonia synthesis.The gold electroless deposition on Ni Foam has been obtained by immersion in aqueous solution containing KAuCl4 and HCl, with or without stirring and addition of a surfactant agent …
