摘　　要：针对在燃料电池不锈钢双极板电堆上应用的Cr0. 23C0. 77非晶改性薄膜使用寿命低的问题,仍然采用脉冲偏压电弧离子镀技术,在Cr0. 23C0. 77薄膜与316L不锈钢基体之间增加制备一层耐点蚀钛合金过渡层,考察过渡层对改性薄膜表面综合性能的影响。首先在316L不锈钢基体上选择TA1、TA9、TA10和Ti35四种工业钛合金分别进行预选过渡层材料的沉积制备,对所得样品进行耐蚀性能的对比检测,结果显示,在模拟电池阴极环境下,四种样品中Ti35材料的耐蚀性能最优,可确定为过渡层的首选材料;之后再在不锈钢双极板样品上制备有Ti35过渡层的316L/Ti35/Cr0. 23C0. 77复合薄膜,与只有Cr0. 23C0. 77单层薄膜的样品一起进行表面综合性能的对比测试,结果表明,添加Ti35钛合金过渡层后,双极板在保持原有导电性能的接触电阻为3. 0 mΩ·cm2(0. 6 MPa下)左右和水接触角大于100°的疏水性能的基础上,耐蚀性能得到了明显的改善,在模拟阴极环境的动电位腐蚀测量条件下,腐蚀曲线中出现了一个明显的平台钝化区,从-0. 3～0. 9 V较宽的电位范围内腐蚀电流一直保持低于10-6A·cm-2水平,并且破钝电位高达1. 0 V以上。这将有利于提高双极板的表面防护性能和使用寿命。We addressed the pinhole corrosion problem at the interface of the surface modified, amorphous Cr0.23 C0.77 coating and 316L stainless-steel plate of fuel cell. The solution was an inserted Ti-alloy layer,deposited by pulse bias arc ion plating. The influence of the Ti-alloy insertion layer on the interfacial corrosion was investigated in operation environment of proton exchange membrane fuel cell （PEMFC）. The preliminary results show that the Ti35 alloy transition layer has a major impact. For example, the Ti35-alloy layer significantly increased the corrosion resistance （and bipolar plate service time） under the conditions：at an interface contact resistance of ～ 3.0 mΩ· cm2 and a water-contact angle above 100°. Simulated in PEMFC environment, a well-defined passive region platform showed up in the potentiodynamic polarization curve; the current density was always below 10-6 A · cm-2 （0.6 MPa） in -0. 3 to 0. 9 V range; and the breakdown potential was up to 1.0 V.
