Abstract
The switchable generation of hydrogen from a hydrazine solution was achieved with an electrochemical cell that has a cobalt anode and a platinum cathode. The H2 generator is based on the combination of hydrazine electro-oxidation on cobalt anode and H2O electro-reduction on platinum cathode. The rate of H2 generation was regulated by switching with no power supply. Slight electricity was generated from this cell along with H2. This cell uses selective anode and cathode catalysts, and hence a membraneless (one-compartment) structure could be realized for the regulation of H2 generation.
