It was shown that the introduction of these additives reduces the hydrogenation time of magnesium by more than a factor of three compared to pure Mg. For composites containing Fe100-xCoxOy, a clear dependence of the hydrogenation rate, particle dispersion, and degree of conversion in the hydrolysis reaction on the cobalt content was established. The most balanced performance in terms of hydrogenation kinetics and hydrogen yield during hydrolysis was demonstrated by composites with Fe75Co25Oy and Fe50Co50Oy additives, making them promising universal catalysts for hydrogen energy systems. In addition, the electrochemical deposition and properties of Ni–Mo system coatings for electrocatalytic hydrogen generation were studied. It was found that increasing the sodium citrate concentration in the electrolyte up to 1.0 M promotes an increase in the Mo content in the coatings, whereas further concentration increase leads to its decrease. Coatings with elevated Mo and O contents (up to 44.13 wt.% Mo and 7.82 wt.% O) exhibited a minimal hydrogen evolution overpotential (0.136 V) and a reduced Tafel slope, indicating improved reaction kinetics. Thermal treatment of highly alloyed Ni–Mo coatings at 950 °C for 1 h was shown to ensure high electrocatalytic activity in alkaline media. Product Description popup.authors Oleksandr P.
