Sažetak
In the present work, we conducted an electrochemical study on nickel electrodeposition on glassy carbon electrode (GCE) from an ammoniacal solution containing 0.01 M NiCl2 and 0.1 M NH4Cl. From the voltammetric study, it was possible to calculate the diffusion coefficient's value as 1.93 × 10–6 cm2s–1. The current density transients were analyzed using a kinetic mechanism model involving three different contributions: (a) a Langmuir-type adsorption process, (b) 3D nucleation limited by a mass transfer reaction, and (c) a proton reduction process. Non-linear fittings of the current density transients revealed that the values of the nucleation rate (A) and the number of active nucleation sites (N0) increased with the decrease in the applied overpotential. Morphological studies have confirmed the existence of a progressive nucleation process with Ni crystallites ranging from 0.5 to 4 µm.
