The invention provides a
Raney nickel electrode preparation method which comprises the following steps: 1, taking
nickel powder with the particle size of 15-75 microns,
nickel powder with the particle size of 75-150 microns and aluminum
powder with the particle size of 15-75 microns, pouring the
nickel powder, the nickel powder and the aluminum powder into a mixer, uniformly mixing without segregation phenomenon, and enabling the nickel powder, the nickel powder and the aluminum powder to respectively account for 70%-79%, 1%-10% and 20%; secondly, a
plasma spraying technology is adopted, the temperature is regulated and controlled, so that the nickel powder and the aluminum powder with the particle size being 15-75 micrometers reach a
molten state, and the nickel powder with the particle size being 75-150 micrometers reach a semi-
molten state; spraying to a nickel net, and activating, cleaning and
cutting to obtain a
Raney nickel electrode; the nickel powder and the aluminum powder with different particle sizes are reasonably matched in the powder formula, the particle flying speed in spraying is properly increased, the spraying temperature is balanced, the powder with different particle sizes reaches different molten states, and therefore the large-particle nickel powder forms a good support in the
coating, the
bonding strength of the
coating is remarkably improved, and the service life of the
coating is prolonged. And the catalyst is not easy to fall off in the use process, so that the efficiency and the stability of the water
electrolysis hydrogen production equipment are improved.
