Abstract
Porous Ni electrodes with different textures were successfully fabricated by electrodeposition in the presence of NH<sub>4</sub>Cl and (NH<sub>4</sub>)<sub>2</sub>SO<sub>4</sub>. Moreover, we studied the effect of texture on porous nickel electrodes for HER and NaBH<sub>4</sub> electrooxidation.
