Abstract

Hydrogen absorption into and surface oxidation of Pd–Au alloys in acidic solutions were studied by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and chronoamperometry (CA) coupled with the electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM). The influence of alloy bulk and surface composition on the process of oxidation of absorbed hydrogen was examined. The stresses induced by hydrogen insertion in Pd–Au alloys were compared with the case of pure Pd. The potential corresponding to the formation of a monolayer of surface oxide was determined for Pd–Au alloys of different surface states. Electrochemical dissolution of Pd–Au alloys was investigated.
