RESEARCHES ON HYDROGEN OVERVOLTAGE ON METALLIC SINGLE CRYSTALS. ANTIMONY

Abstract

Hydrogen overvoltage on antimony polycrystalline and single crystal cathodes, oriented following the (100), (110), and (111) planes, has been investigated in 0.1 M HClO4 solutions, in a c. d. range up to 100 amp/sq m. The Tafel law holds true at high c. d. values; the parameters being slightly different for the different electrodes. In the lower c. d. range, oscillographic recordings revealed the behavior is anomalous and different from that observed with other metals. (AUTHO)
