Article Synopsis
- The study analyzes how Ti-Pt-coated stainless steel bipolar plates behave under corrosion in a polymer electrolyte membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE) environment, using electrochemical tests and surface analysis.
- Results show that the coated plates have significantly better corrosion resistance (1.68 × 10 A/cm) compared to bare SS316L plates (1.94 × 10 A/cm).
- However, the coating's effectiveness decreases in the PEMWE environment due to electrolyte entering blistered areas of the coating, caused by oxygen gas pressure, which leads to corrosion of the underlying substrate.
