Mechanism of electrodeposition nickelcobalt alloy and electrocatalytic properties of hydrogen evolution of nickelcobalt obtained in a sulfate bath with or without rare earth compounds were studied.The experimental results showed that the process of nickelcobalt alloy belonged to'anomalous codeposition'.By measuring the cathodic polarization curves,the surface structure and the components of nickelcobalt alloy,when a small amount of rare earth compounds was added to the bath,the cathodic polarization of electrodepositing process was decr...
