摘要

Bipolar plates are the current collector in proton exchange membrane fuel cells. Bipolar plates are generally made of graphite, which makes them expensive and heavy. For the development of alternative materials to reduce the cost of the fuel cell is therefore necessary. Concerning the bipolar plates a promising alternative is to use stainless steel. However, due to the aggressive environment of the cell, materials with both high resistance to corrosion and high electrical conductivity are requested. To that aim, the coating of stainless steel with a conductive polymer is more and more considered. The coating specifications are a very low contact resistance (< 10 mΩ.cm~2 at 150 N/cm~2), a high corrosion resistance in aggressive acidic environment i.e. sulfuric acid 0.6 M at 60°C and a strong compatibility with shaping. The technique selected in this work is electropolymerization which combines the formation of the polymer and the deposition of the coating in one way process. Polypyrrole is the intrinsically conductive polymer selected because of its high conductivity (under appropriate doping), chemical stability and easy synthesis from water-based electrolyte solution. In order to improve the contact and the corrosion resistance of the polypyrrole layer the addition of specific dopants (salts) and charges (graphene) were considered. The influence of the dopant and charges on the electrosynthesis of pyrrole was investigated through cyclic voltammetry. Coatings were applied on 316L stainless steel after etching performed to remove the passive layer, to allow reducing the contact resistance and to improve the coating adhesion on the substrate. Deposition was carried out galvanostatically under pulsed current. The thickness and the morphology of the coatings were determined by using a SEM-FEG. Corrosion performance was evaluated in sulfuric acid 0.6M at 60°C by electrochemical techniques.
