| Abstract | This paper describes the cathodic electrodeposition of nickel hydroxides from NiCl$_{2}$ at constant potentials. In a single-compartment electrochemical cell, the procedure yields black films that have the appearance of glassy carbon. XPS analyses reveal that the films consist of a mixture of Ni(OH)$_{2}$ and NiOOH in a proportion that depends on the deposition potential; furthermore, SIMS analyses indicate that the coatings are richer in NiOOH in the inner regions towards the support. The electrochemical behavior has been compared with data obtained on electrodes based on pure Ni(OH)$_{2}$ prepared by cathodic electrodeposition from Ni(NO$_{3}$)$_{2}$, following literature procedures. This comparison confirms the composite nature of black nickel hydroxide (BN) coatings, adding that Ni(OH)$_{2}$ and NiOOH are present in nearly equal amounts. The electrocatalytic activity of BN electrodes was tested in the oxidation of methanol in alkaline solutions. Experimental results are consistent with a mechanism previously proposed in literature for the oxidation of organic compounds on nickel electrodes. Comparison with electrodes based on pure Ni(OH)$_{2}$ shows that, in the low potentials region, the presence of a high amount of NiOOH causes a decrease of activity, while an opposite effect is observed when the potential is increased. The black nickel electrodes show a remarkable stability in repeated cycles of oxidation of methanol and O$_{2}$ evolution; under similar conditions, conventional Ni(OH)$_{2}$ films show an appreciable decrease in thickness, as evidenced by the decrease of peak charge in cyclic voltammetry experiments. |

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.
