Corrosion-resistant conductive coatings

Topics: Metal manufacturing

For bipolar plates, current collectors, and protective conductive surfaces where corrosion response and contact resistance move together.

Challenge

Selecting corrosion-resistant conductive coatings requires low contact resistance, stable surface chemistry, and process-compatible layer formation before long component or stack tests.

Solution

Fabricating composition-spread coating libraries, measuring registered positions, and mapping composition, phase, corrosion response, surface change, and contact resistance.

Impact

Co-sputtered coating libraries; scanning droplet cell; four-point probe; XRD; surface analysis; uniform follow-up coatings.

Material regions are highlighted when corrosion resistance, conductivity, surface stability, and process fit appear together. Weak regions are excluded before coupon, hardware, stack, or field testing.
