Abstract: The article is devoted to one of the most urgent scientific and technical problems, which consists in the creation of the latest technologies for the synthesis of electrocatalysts for the release of hydrogen, as an ecologically clean, renewable source of energy. Currently, the most effective commercial electrocatalysts for hydrogen evolution are materials based on noble metals, in particular platinum, whose high cost prompts the search for more affordable catalytic materials. Alloys based on metals of the ferrum group, alloys of metals of the ferrum group with refractory metals and oxide compositions can claim the role of the latter. From an economic point of view, the use of alloys based on the ferrum group, in particular the Ni-Fe alloy, as an electrocatalyst for the release of hydrogen looks very attractive. The electrocatalytic properties of such a material in relation to the reaction of hydrogen evolution are determined by the composition and structure of the alloy. The most controlled and precise way of forming the Ni-Fe alloy is its electrodeposition from solutions of salts of the corresponding metals. Therefore, in view of the above, an urgent scientific and technical task is to determine the regularities of the electrosynthesis process of the Ni-Fe alloy. The obtained results will become the basis for the creation of the latest technologies for the formation of highly efficient and economically available electrocatalysts for the release of hydrogen.
