LINQCELL ANO-NiAl
- Low overpotential for oxygen evolution reaction
- Platinum-group metal (PGM)-free catalyst
- Optimized as anode for alkaline water electrolyzers
Product Description
LINQCELL ANO-NiAl is a nickel-based electrode with a binary nickel–aluminum alloy catalyst layer deposited through plasma spray coating. It exhibits low overpotential for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), which is the anodic half-reaction in both hydrogen generation and CO2 conversion systems. Traditionally, precious metals, such as iridium and ruthenium are used as OER catalysts. However, nickel-based materials, such as the LINQCELL ANO-NiAl, are emerging as strong alternatives to platinum-group metals due to their high reaction rates and long-term stability. The binary alloy composition further improves catalytic performance and oxidation resistance.
Key Features:
- High Catalytic Activity for OER: The nickel-based electrode, with its binary nickel-aluminum alloy catalyst layer, exhibits low overpotential for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), a crucial reaction in both hydrogen generation and CO2 conversion.
- Cost-Effective Alternative to Precious Metals: By utilizing nickel-based materials, ANO-NiAl significantly reduces the reliance on expensive precious, thus lowering capital expenditures.
- Improved Performance and Stability: The binary alloy composition of the catalyst layer enhances both the catalytic performance (high reaction rates) and the oxidation resistance of the anode, contributing to long-term stability and efficient operation.
These feature make LINQCELL ANO-NiAl an ideal high-performance anode for both alkaline water electrolyzers and alkaline carbon dioxide electrolyzers.
Highly Recommended for:
- Alkaline water electrolyzers, specifically as anode for hydrogen production.
- Carbon dioxide electrolyzers, particularly as anode for facilitating the oxygen evolution reaction.
