Abstract:This work deals with using a waste aluminum-based TLC plate to prepare crystalline potash alum, which is subsequently activated for the study of hydrogen evolution reaction in alkaline KOH. The structural and morphological characterization of the synthesized potash alum (PA) has been assessed with powder X-ray diffraction and thermogravimetry analysis. Scanning electron micrographs reveal the morphology of the activated potash alum. The heterogeneous electrocatalytic HER activity in 1 M KOH attributes a modera… Show more
