| 1 | Process and challenges of stainless steel based bipolar plates for proton exchange membrane fuel cells显示文摘Proton exchange membrane fuel cell(PEMFC)powered automobiles have been recognized to be the ultimate solution to replace traditional fuel automobiles because of their advantages of PEMFCs such as no pollution,low temperature start-up,high energy density,and low noise.As one of the core components,the bipolar plates(BPs)play an important role in the PEMFC stack.Traditional graphite BPs and composite BPs have been criticized for their shortcomings such as low strength,high brittleness,and high processing cost.In contrast,stainless steel BPs(SSBPs)have recently attracted much attention of domestic and foreign researchers because of their excellent comprehensive performance,low cost,and diverse options for automobile applications.However,the SSBPs are prone to corrosion and passivation in the PEMFC working environment,which lead to reduced output power or premature failure.This review is aimed to summarize the corrosion and passivation mechanisms,characterizations and evaluation,and the surface modification technologies in the current SSBPs research.The non-coating and coating technical routes of SSBPs are demonstrated,such as substrate component regulation,thermal nitriding,electroplating,ion plating,chemical vapor deposition,and physical vapor deposition,etc.Alternative coating materials for SSBPs are metal coatings,metal nitride coatings,conductive polymer coatings,and polymer/carbon coatings,etc.Both the surface modification technologies can solve the corrosion resistance problem of stainless steel without affecting the contact resistance,however still facing restraints such as long-time stability,feasibility of low-cost,and mass production process.This paper is believed to enrich the knowledge of high-performance and long-life BPs applied for PEMFC automobiles. | Gaoyang Liu Faguo Hou Shanlong Peng Xindong Wang Baizeng Fang | 2022 | International Journal of Minerals,Metallurgy and Materials2022，29，5： | 4 |
| 2 | Novel Au nanoparticles-inlaid titanium paper for PEM water electrolysis with enhanced interfacial electrical conductivity显示文摘Proton-exchange membrane water electrolysis(PEM WE)is a particularly promising technology for renewable hydrogen produc-tion.However,the excessive passivation of the gas diffusion layer(GDL)will seriously affect the high surface-contact resistance and result in energy losses.Thus,a mechanism for improving the conductivity and interface stability of the GDL is an urgent issue.In this work,we have prepared a hydrophilic and corrosion resistant conductive composite protective coating.The polydopamine(PDA)film on the Ti surface,which was obtained via the solution oxidation method,ensured that neither micropores nor pinholes existed in the final hybrid coatings.In-situ reduced gold nanoparticles(AuNPs)improved the conductivity to achieve the desired interfacial contact resistance and further enhanced the corrosion resistance.The surface composition of the treated samples was investigated using scanning electron microscopy(SEM),transmis-sion electron microscopy(TEM),X-ray diffraction(XRD),and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy(FTIR).The results indicated that the optimized reaction conditions included a pH value of 3 of HAuCl_(4) solution with PDA deposition(48 h)on papers and revealed the lowest con-tact resistance(0.5 mΩ·cm^(2))and corrosion resistance(0.001μA·cm^(−2))in a 0.5 M H_(2)SO_(4)+2 ppm F−solution(1.7 V vs.RHE)among all the modified specimens,where RHE represents reversible hydrogen electrode.These findings indicated that the Au-PDA coating is very appropriate for the modification of Ti GDLs in PEM WE systems. | Yue Liu Shaobo Huang Shanlong Peng Heng Zhang Lifan Wang Xindong Wang | 2022 | International Journal of Minerals,Metallurgy and Materials2022，29，5： | 2 |
| 3 | Biomimetic three-dimensional multilevel nanoarray electrodes with superaerophobicity as efficient bifunctional catalysts for electrochemical water splitting显示文摘The design and preparation of cost-effective and durable catalysts for electrochemical water splitting are significant for the development and application of hydrogen production.Herein,inspired by the underwater superaerophobicity of fish scales,a three-dimensional multilevel nanoarray electrode with superaerophobicity was designed and fabricated by the hydrothermal method to solve the bubble shielding effect in electrochemical reactions.Benefiting from the high specific surface area,superaerophobic properties,Al doping,the Al-CoS_(2)nanosheets(NSs)/nickel foam(NF)-30 exhibits outstanding electrocatalytic activity and superior durability for electrochemical water splitting in 1 M KOH.Significantly,the Al-CoS_(2)NSs/NF-30 only required extremely low overpotential of 176 mV for oxygen evolution reaction(OER)to reach a current density of 10 mA·cm^(-2).Al-CoS_(2)NSs/NF-30 was employed as bifunctional electrode for electrochemical water splitting with a cell voltage of 1.58 V at 10 mA·cm^(-2).Meanwhile,Al-CoS_(2) NSs/NF-30 exhibited excellent durability(250 h@10 mA·cm^(-2)and 50 h@100 mA·cm^(-2)).The cobalt-based catalyst(Al-CoS_(2) NSs/NF-30)with superaerophobicity exhibits excellent performance in activity and durability,therefore is a promising electrochemical water splitting catalyst. | Dongdong Wang Yue Liu Lili Liu Dongfang Shan Guixin Shen Shanlong Peng Heng Zhang Xindong Wang | 2023 | Nano Research2023，16，5： | 0 |
