The electrochemical efficiency of the alloy has been evaluated on the basis of electrochemical data obtained from the steady-state polarization Tafel curves and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) in a 1 M NaOH solution at 298 K. The results showed that the three-dimensional structure of NiPC alloy effectively increased its catalytic activity toward the HER. The 3D-NiPC alloy is characterized by low overpotential at practical high current densities, large real surface area, and double-layer capacitance. Also, the 3D-NiPC showed very good physical and electrochemical stability. A high roughness factor (three orders of magnitude; Rf=3550), low overpotential at 250 mAcm-2 (η250=173.3 mV), and low charge transfer resistance (Rct=100 Ωcm2) were obtained in the best conditions, in 1 M NaOH at 298 K.}, keywords = {Hydrogen evolution reaction (HER),three-dimensional NiPC alloy,electrocatalytic activity,Electrodeposition}, url = {https://hfe.irost.ir/article_1063.html}, eprint = {https://hfe.irost.ir/article_1063_039d6276338a20c7cfa36de23ff9a645.pdf} }
