Abstract

Highly porous nickel matrices with varied content of nickel were formed on a glassy graphite electrode by the electrochemical deposition method. The nickel deposits were studied by pulsed chronoamperometry, impedance spectroscopy, and cyclic voltammetry on a rotating disk electrode in a 1 M KOH solution and in alkaline solutions containing methanol or ethanol. The process in which a hydroxide film is formed on the nickel surface in an alkaline solution and the influence exerted by this process on the catalytic oxidation of alcohols on nickel in an alkaline medium are discussed.
