example 1

[0106]A description will be given below of the results of confirmation experiments performed to confirm the effects of the present invention.

[0107]First, the base material body shown in Table 1 is prepared. In Table 1, “titanium” was pure titanium having a purity of 99.9 mass % or more, and “titanium alloy” was a titanium alloy having Ti-0.15 mass % Pd.

[0108]The dimensions of each prepared base material body were width 50 mm×length 60 mm×thickness 0.3 mm.

[0109]Next, a TiO2 film is formed on the surface of the base material body. A plasma electrolytic oxidation process was carried out in an aqueous solution of K3PO4. A high-density carbon plate was used as the cathode and the above was carried out under conditions of a temperature of 100° C. or lower, a voltage of 450 V, and a time of 0 to 300 minutes. The film thickness of the TiO2 film was set to the value shown in Table 1 by adjusting the time of the plasma electrolytic oxidation process.

[0110]Next, the base material body on which...

[0126]Next, as shown in Table 3, a titanium base material (Invention Example 11) on which a Magneli phase titanium oxide film was formed and a titanium base material (Comparative Example 7) on which a titanium oxide film (insulating titanium oxide film) which was not a Magneli phase titanium oxide film was formed were each used as an anode electrode, a solid polymer water electrolysis cell (area 4 cm×4 cm) having the structure shown in FIG. 5 was formed and set as Invention Example 101 and Comparative Example 101.

[0127]In Comparative Example 102, a titanium base material on which a titanium oxide film was not formed on the surface of the base material body formed of a porous body was used as the anode electrode.

[0128]For this water electrolysis cell, a voltammetry test was carried out at 2.5 V for 1 minute and 0 V for 1 minute as one cycle. The current density flowing in the cell due to water electrolysis was measured. The test temperature was 80° C. The evaluation results are shown...

Abstract

This titanium base material has a base material body formed of titanium or a titanium alloy, in which a Magneli phase titanium oxide film formed of a Magneli phase titanium oxide represented by a chemical formula TinO2n-1 (4≤n≤10) is formed on a surface of the base material body. Here, the Magneli phase titanium oxide film preferably contains at least one or both of Ti4O7 and Ti5O9.
