The corrosion resistance of this film in 0.5 mol·L^（-1） H_2SO_4 solution containing 5 ppm F- at 80°C was investigated using polarization tests. The results showed that the surface treatment of the SS316 L strongly affected the adhesion of the carbon coating to the stainless steel. Compared to the bare SS316 L, the Ag-doped carbon-coated SS316 L bipolar plate was remarkably more stable in both the anode and cathode environments of proton exchange membrane fuel cell（PEMFC） and the interface contact resistance between the specimen and Toray 060 carbon paper was reduced from 333.0 m？·cm^2 to 21.6 m？·cm^2 at a compaction pressure of 1.2 MPa.展开更多
Nanoporous silver（NPS） with a ligament size ranging from 15 to 40 nm was fabricated by de-alloying（Cu_（50）Zr_（50））_（100-x）Agx（x = 10at%, 20at%, 30at%, and 40at%） amorphous ribbons in a mixed aqueous soluti...Nanoporous silver（NPS） with a ligament size ranging from 15 to 40 nm was fabricated by de-alloying（Cu_（50）Zr_（50））_（100-x）Agx（x = 10at%, 20at%, 30at%, and 40at%） amorphous ribbons in a mixed aqueous solution of hydrofluoric（HF） acid and nitric acid under free corrosion conditions. Nanoporous silver ligaments and pore sizes were able to be fine-tuned through tailoring the chemical composition, corrosion conditions, and de-alloying time. The ligament size increases with an increase in Ag content and de-alloying time, but decreases with an increase in HF concentration. This phenomenon may be attributed to the dissolution of Zr/Cu and the diffusion, aggregation, nucleation, and recrystallization of Ag, leading to an oriented attachment of adjacent nanocrystals as revealed by TEM analysis.展开更多
