The results of anode polarization curves, Tafel curves, and EIS characterizations indicated that the Al/Pb-0.75%Ag-0.03%Co anode has higher electrocatalytic activity and corrosion resistance than the Al/Pb-0.8%Ag anode.

After 24 h of anodic polarization, SEM observations and XRD analysis showed that the MnO2-PbO2 layer on the Al/Pb-0.75%Ag- 0.03%Co anode surface is characterized by dendritic crystals, and the PbSO4-PbO2 layer under the MnO2-PbO2 layer is characterized by uniform and chaotic orientation tetragonal symmetry crystallites of PbSO4. However, the MnO2-PbO2 layer on the Al/Pb-0.8%Ag anode surface is characterized by granular crystals, and the PbSO4-PbO2 layer under the MnO2 PbO2 layer is characterized by well-organized orientation crystallites of PbSO4, which are concentrated in certain zones.展开更多
