The hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is one of the most studied electrochemical process due to the alternative energy conversion and the importance in some chemical process. The search for new electrocatalytic materials lead to investigate metals and alloys with particular characteristics/properties. This paper describes aspects of hydrogen adsorption and Ni-hydroxide formation over nickel alloys (SAF2205, INCONEL625 and MONEL400) utilizing cyclic voltammetry. The SAF2205 (6.4% Ni) alloy present behavior analogue to pure Ni electrodes to hydroxide species, and can bring some advantages to HER compared with the carbon steel (SAE1020) electrode commonly utilized in industrial process.
