Abstract

The invention relates to a fuel cell metal bipolar plate carbon chromium gradient coating and a preparation method, which is characterized in that a closed field unbalanced magnetron sputtering technology is used for depositing the chromium and carbon elements with different proportions on the surface of a stainless steel thin plate to form the carbon chromium gradient coating. The preparation method comprises the following steps: 1) cleaning ion sputtering; 2) depositing a pure chromium base layer; 3) depositing a chromium and carbon transition layer; 4) depositing a chromium and carbon coexistence layer; and 5) depositing a pure carbon work layer. Compared with the prior art, the modified bipolar plate has high membrane-based combination force, corrosion resisting performance and conductive performance, and can satisfy the usage requirement of the fuel cell bipolar plate.
