[0002] Hydrogen fuel cell engines are used in hydrogen-rich or pure hydrogen environments. Hydrogen can penetrate into the metal materials in the components, causing serious hydrogen embrittlement, which may lead to component failure and accidents. Therefore, researchers propose to use hydrogen-blocking coatings to prevent hydrogen penetration, thereby effectively controlling the hydrogen embrittlement damage of hydrogen fuel engine components, improving the service life of the components and avoiding accidents.
[0003] Common hydrogen-blocking coatings can be divided into three categories: oxide coatings, non-oxide coatings and composite coatings. Coatings prepared by traditional coating preparation methods are difficult to avoid the generation of nanoscale micropores or cracks in the coatings during deposition. These defects, which are usually caused by dust particles or any other random events during film growth, are very easy to develop into hydrogen penetration channels along the growth direction of the coating, resulting in a decrease in the hydrogen-blocking performance of the coating. Moreover, the hydrogen-blocking coatings in the prior art have poor mechanical properties and low hardness, and are easy to scratch and fall off under external load.

[0027] In order to further understand the application, the preferred embodiments of the application are described below in combination with examples, but it should be understood that these descriptions are only for further illustrating the features and advantages of the application, and are not a limitation on the claims of the application.
[0028] In view of the poor mechanical properties and low hardness of the hydrogen barrier coating in the prior art, the hydrogen barrier coating is easy to be scratched and peeled off under external load, the application provides a Cr-based hydrogen barrier composite coating, which utilizes the great difference in hydrogen permeation performance between the hydrogen barrier coating material and the substrate, and a nano-composite coating is prepared on the hydrogen surface of the substrate by high-power pulse magnetron sputtering technology to inhibit and slow down the diffusion of hydrogen-based isotopes, so that the hydrogen barrier composite coating has good hydrogen barrier performance and mechanical properties. Specifically, the application discloses a Cr-based hydrogen barrier composite coating, which comprises a Cr metal transition layer, a CrAlSiN nano-coating combined on the surface of the Cr metal transition layer, and a Cr2O3 layer combined on the surface of the CrAlSiN nano-coating.
[0029] In the Cr-based hydrogen barrier composite coating provided in the application, the content of N element increases in the direction from the Cr metal transition layer to the CrAlSiN nano-coating, and the content of N element decreases and the content of O element increases in the direction from the CrAlSiN nano-coating to the Cr2O3 layer.
[0030] In the application, the thickness of the Cr metal transition layer is 0.1-0.5 μm, the thickness of the CrAlSiN nano-coating is 0.5-20 μm, and the thickness of the Cr2O3 layer is 0.5-2 μm.
[0031] Further, the application provides a Cr-based hydrogen barrier plate, which comprises a substrate and a Cr-based hydrogen barrier composite coating, and the Cr-based hydrogen barrier composite coating is the Cr-based hydrogen barrier composite coating described in the above scheme.
[0032] In the Cr-based hydrogen barrier plate, the substrate is well known to those skilled in the art, and the application has no particular limitation thereon, for example, the substrate can be selected from stainless steel.
[0033] The application also provides a preparation method of the Cr-based hydrogen barrier plate, which comprises the following steps:
[0034] A) sequentially performing pre-cleaning and ion cleaning on the substrate;
[0035] B) depositing a Cr metal transition layer on the surface of the substrate obtained in step A) by using high-power magnetron sputtering technology;
[0036] C) depositing a CrAlSiN layer on the surface of the substrate obtained in step B) by using high-power magnetron sputtering technology;
[0037] D) depositing a Cr2O3 layer on the surface of the substrate obtained in step C) by using high-power magnetron sputtering technology.
[0038] In the preparation of the Cr-based hydrogen barrier plate, the substrate is first pre-cleaned, which can be ultrasonically cleaned with alcohol, acetone and deionized water in sequence to remove impurities or dirt on the surface of the substrate.
[0039] Then the substrate is ion cleaned, specifically by placing the substrate in a vacuum chamber, cleaning the Cr target and CrAlSi target, closing the vacuum chamber, introducing argon after vacuumizing, and cleaning at a working gas pressure of 0.3-2.0 Pa, a micro-pulse width of 10-80 μs, an average power of 4-10 kW, and a bias voltage of 0-200 V. The cleaning time is 5-30 minutes. The Cr target and the CrAlSi target are used for subsequent deposition of the coating. The cleaning time is 5-30 min.
[0040] After the above preparation is completed, a Cr metal transition layer is then deposited on the surface of the substrate, specifically by using a pure Cr target, introducing argon into the vacuum chamber of the high-power magnetron sputtering device at a flow rate of 80-200 sccm, adjusting the working gas pressure to 0.3-2.0 Pa, adjusting the micro-pulse width to 10-80 μm, and depositing on the surface of the ion-cleaned substrate at an average power of 4-10 kW and a bias voltage of 0-100 V. The above process realizes the deposition of the Cr transition layer.
[0041] After the Cr transition layer is prepared, a CrAlSiN layer is deposited, specifically by:
[0042] Using a CrAlSi target, setting the adjusted micro-pulse width in the vacuum chamber of the high-power magnetron sputtering device to 10-80 μs, the average power to 4-10 kW, the bias voltage to 0-200 V, the argon flow rate to 80-150 sccm, and linearly increasing the nitrogen flow rate in the vacuum chamber to 30-50 sccm within 5 min, so that the gas pressure of the mixed gas in the vacuum chamber is 0.5-3.0 Pa.
[0043] The deposition time of the CrAlSiN layer is 20-50 min, and the atomic ratio of Cr, Al and Si in the CrAlSi target is 6:3:1. During the above deposition process, the nitrogen flow rate is gradually increased, and therefore the N content in the Cr transition layer to the CrAlSiN layer is gradually increased.
[0044] Finally, the deposition of the Cr2O3 layer is performed, specifically by closing the CrAlSi target, starting the Cr target, setting the target average power to 4-10 kW, reducing the nitrogen flow rate to 0 sccm within 3 min, and linearly increasing the oxygen flow rate to 20 sccm within 2 min after the nitrogen flow rate is reduced to 0 sccm. At this time, the gas pressure of the mixed gas in the vacuum chamber is 0.5-3.2 Pa.
[0045] During the deposition of the Cr2O3 layer, the content of N element gradually decreases and the content of O element gradually increases in the direction from the CrAlSiN layer to the Cr2O3 layer.
[0046] The structural schematic diagram of the high-power magnetron sputtering device is specifically shown in the figure. Figure 2
[0047] During the preparation process, the greater the negative bias voltage, the larger the nanocrystal size, so the negative bias voltage needs to be controlled, and the target power and target composition will affect the composition of the coating and further affect the hydrogen barrier property.
[0048] The high-power magnetron sputtering technology is adopted to prepare the hydrogen barrier composite coating, and a uniform, dense and low-defect microstructure can be obtained, and the combination of the coating composition and the preparation method is conducive to forming a nanocrystal / amorphous composite structure, and the dangling bond energy of the composite structure can effectively adsorb free hydrogen atoms, thereby further improving the hydrogen barrier property.
