Abstract

An anti-corrosive and conductive NbTaMoW medium entropy alloy (MEA) coating was deposited on 304 stainless steel using a dual-cathode glow discharge technology. This MEA coating exhibits a single body-centered cubic phase with about 10 nm grains, and forms a passivation film with significantly enhanced corrosion resistance at any given HF concentration. The lower adsorption energy of Nb atoms for oxygen atoms leads to the enrichment of Nb oxides in the passivation film, which is beneficial for hindering the rapid diffusion of F⁻ ions. These findings underscore the potential of NbTaMoW MEA coatings to improve the durability and efficiency of PEMFCs.

增强 NbTaMoW 中熵合金涂层在模拟 PEMFC 环境中的耐腐蚀性：实验和计算见解

利用双阴极辉光放电技术在 304 不锈钢上沉积了一层抗腐蚀导电 NbTaMoW 中等熵合金 (MEA) 涂层。这种 MEA 涂层呈现出单体中心立方相，晶粒约为 10 nm，在任何给定的 HF 浓度下都能形成耐腐蚀性能显著增强的钝化膜。铌原子对氧原子的吸附能较低，导致钝化膜中的铌氧化物富集，有利于阻碍 F 离子的快速扩散。这些发现强调了 NbTaMoW MEA 涂层在提高 PEMFC 的耐用性和效率方面的潜力。
