| Abstract | The electrocatalytic activity of Ag-doped lanthanum chromites electrode materials viz., LaCr$_{0.4}$Ag$_{0.6}$O$_{3}$ and LaCr$_{0.7}$Ag$_{0.3}$O$_{3}$ prepared by decomposing the precursor complex is studied. Pure LaCrO$_{3}$ is synthesized by combustion route using oxalic acid as a fuel. The decomposition behaviour of the as-synthesized powder obtained in the latter method is characterized by TGA-DTA and XRD. Both the precursor complex and the as-synthesized powder are calcined at 900°C for 7 and 10 h, respectively. XRD of the final product after calcinations indicated the formation of perovskite phase with minor amounts of impurity phases of component oxides in the Ag-doped lanthanum chromites and pure perovskite phase in the undoped one. The surface morphology of the perovskites is studied by SEM. The electrocatalytic activity of the perovskite powders for borohydride oxidation is studied by using cyclic voltammetry (CV) at a catalyst loading of 0.7 mgcm$^{−2}$ for both Ag-doped and undoped LaCrO$_{3}$ coated on glassy carbon substrate. Calibration plots are obtained by plotting the anodic peak current versus concentration of borohydride in the range of 20–100 mM. The sensitivities of the three perovskites towards borohydride oxidation indicated that LaCr$_{0.4}$Ag$_{0.6}$O$_{3}$ is the best among all the perovskites studied giving a value of 1.395 μA/mM. Graphical Abstract The undoped and Ag-doped lanthanum chromites (LaCr0.4Ag0.6O3 and LaCr0.7Ag0.3O3) synthesised by us are compared for activity towards borohydride electro-oxidation using cyclic voltammetry. Among these, LaCr0.4Ag0.6O3 shows highest sensitivity towards borohydride oxidation (1.395 µA/mM). The results are interpreted by comparing this work with those of Ag-based electrocatalysts. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
