Abstrakt: | Bipolar plates, a critical component of proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC), are constructed out of alloys of Ti, Pt, Cr, or graphitic materials that have limitations. Electrical conductivity, cost, and corrosion resistance are among the critical considerations for bi-polar plate material. Graphene, which possesses impressive conductivity and toughness, is an attractive option as coating on metallic substrates of PEMFC bipolar plates. This study investigates corrosion resistance and its durability due to graphene developed by chemical vapor deposition on a pure Ni-Cu alloy and a commercial Ni-Cu alloy in 0.5 m H (© 2023 The Authors.
