Аннотация
Pt(WC1–x)/Cu electrodes were obtained by deposition of platinum onto the surface of tungsten carbides under open circuit conditions. A tungsten carbide layer with a thickness of ca. 20 μm was pre-formed on the surface of copper plates by thermolysis of a gas mixture WF6 + H2 + C3H8. During the deposition process, platinum nanoparticles are formed on the surface of tungsten carbides. The source of electrons for the reduction of Pt(II) species is the oxidation of tungsten carbides surface layers. The morphology of the prepared electrodes was studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), the chemical composition of the surface layers by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and the phase composition by X-ray phase analysis (XRD). The deposition of small amounts of platinum (0.002–0.24 mg Pt/cm2 of the geometric electrode surface) resulted in a significant increase in the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) rate. The catalytic activity for the sample with 0.24 mg/cm2 platinum loading approached that of the Pt/Pt electrode. The voltammetric characteristics of the HER on the obtained Pt(WC1–x)/Cu electrodes were determined, and it was assumed that hydrogen evolution proceeds on catalytically active platinum nanoparticles.
