Superior hydrogen permeation resistance in ultrathin oxide nanofilm via crystalline/amorphous interface design
Hydrogen embrittlement in metals is driving the development of novel ceramic coatings resistant to hydrogen permeation. In this study, for the first time, the crystalline/amorphous interface of oxides was found to greatly enhance their hydrogen permeation resistance. With thickness of only 80 nm, the ultrathin oxide nanofilm consisting of amorphous Al2O3 and crystalline Cr2O3 exhibited an exceptionally low hydrogen permeability of 2.1 × 10–16 mol s−1 m−1 Pa−0.5, 3834 times lower than that of the steel. The hydrogen permeation resistance was remarkably improved by 798 % and 2030 % as compared to the sole Cr2O3 and Al2O3 nanofilm, respectively. Hydrogen isotope distribution analyses further verified the remarkable effect of the crystalline/amorphous interface for retarding hydrogen diffusion. These findings provide valuable insights into the impact of interface on the hydrogen barrier efficiency and open a door for developing highly efficient ceramic coatings for hydrogen utilization.
期刊介绍:
Scripta Materialia is a LETTERS journal of Acta Materialia, providing a forum for the rapid publication of short communications on the relationship between the structure and the properties of inorganic materials. The emphasis is on originality rather than incremental research. Short reports on the development of materials with novel or substantially improved properties are also welcomed. Emphasis is on either the functional or mechanical behavior of metals, ceramics and semiconductors at all length scales.
