Pb/WC-ZrO2, Pb/Ag-WC-ZrO2, Pb/WC-ZrO2-CeO2 composite inert electrodes were prepared on aluminum alloy substrate by electrodeposition method from fluorboric bath containing suspension of WC, ZrO2, CeO2 and Ag particles. The stable state polarization curves of oxygen evolution and liner regression curves were obtained. Compared with Pb-1%Ag alloy, the oxygen evolution overpotential of Pb/10.02%WC-3.58%ZrO2, Pb/0.84%Ag-10.01%WC-3.64%ZrO2 and Pb/5.84%WC-2.29%ZrO2-1.32%CeO2 inert electrodes is lower in the range of 12-27mV, the exchange current density is higher two magnitudes above, showing that their catalytic activity of oxygen evolution is better.

The anodic aluminum oxide template was prepared and used to fabricate polyacrylonitrile (PAN) nanowire arrays by mechanical hydraulic method, which provides a new idea for the preparation of polymer nanowires. By further carbonize the PAN nanowires at elevated temperatures, the porous nitrogen-rich carbon nanowires could be directly obtained and used as lithium-ion batteries anode material. The nitrogen-rich carbon nanowire based anode exhibited high initial capacities and maintained an outstanding reversible lithium storage capacity of 317.12 mAh g-1 after 50 cycles at a current density of 30 mA g-1, combined with an excellent rate capability of 317.17, 296.70, 265.02, 234.71, 177.02 mAh g-1 under the current density of 30, 50, 100, 200, 500 mA g-1 respectively. Further, this nitrogen-rich carbon nanowire material also has unique advantages in catalysis, supercapacitors and hydrogen storage application potential due to the porous carbon nanowire structure and the large amount of nitrogen doping.
