Research Abstract

In this study, high-corrosion-resistant Ni-Cr-based amorphous alloy-coated bipolar plates for proton exchange membrane fuel cell were produced by using high velocity oxy-fuel spraying and electrochemical plating. It was found that a single fuel cell with those amorphous alloy-coated bipolar plates showed excellent power generation properties as well as that with conventionally-used graphite bipolar plates.
