METHOD FOR HYDROGEN PRODUCTION AND ELECTROLYTIC CELL THEREOF

摘要

The present invention relates to a process for producing hydrogen in an electrolytic cell comprising a polymer electrolyte membrane, the process comprising contacting protons with a cathode comprising a hydrogen evolution catalyst comprising Co3O4 and a carbon material, wherein the carbon material is conductive or semi-conductive, and the process is carried out applying a potential equal to or higher than 1.8 V between the cathode and the anode.
