In this study the newly designed bipolar plate for proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) was produced by spray-coating the Ni65Cr15P16B4 metallic glassy alloy on Al plate The Ni65Cr15P16B4 metallic glass was adopted as a coating material because of its excellent corrosion resistance and the high velocity oxy-fuel (HVOF) spray coating was used for the metallic glass deposition on the Al plates having 1 bipolar plate flow fieldThe corrosion resistance of the Ni65Cr15P16B4 glassy alloy film produced by the HVOF spray, coating is as studied under simulated PEMFC environments As a result the Ni65Cr15P16B4 glassy alloy film showed lower corrosion current density than the high-corrosion-resistant stainless steel SUS316L Then the electricity generation tests with the single cell having the Ni65Cr15P16B4 glassy alloy-coated bipolar plates produced in this study were conducted As a result the single cell with the metallic glass-coated bipolar plates showed very high I-V performance as well as the cell with the carbon bipolar plates The long time durability tests for 24 h were also conducted at the constant curt cot density of 200 mA cm(-2) As a result, the single cell with the glass-coated bipolar plates showed no voltage drop during the test So it was found in this study that the Ni65Cr15P16B4 glassy alloy coated bipolar plate produced by the HVOF spray-coating has c a potential for practical use tor the fuel cells [doi 10.2320/matertrans MAW201006]
