Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of metal surface coating preparation, and in particular to a carbon-wrapped oxide coating on the surface of a titanium material, a preparation method thereof, and an application thereof. Background Art
[0002] In hydrogen-water conversion systems, water electrolysis and hydrogen fuel cell technologies are considered important development directions for green, low-carbon hydrogen production and utilization. Bipolar plates and diffusion layers are key components in proton exchange membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE) and hydrogen fuel cell (PEMFC) equipment. PEMWE and PEMFC equipment operate under relatively harsh conditions, typically characterized by high acidity, humidity, and temperature. Therefore, high electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance are required of bipolar plate and diffusion layer materials. Titanium is an ideal material for bipolar plates and diffusion layers due to its high corrosion resistance, excellent mechanical strength, high power-to-volume ratio, and high specific energy density. However, titanium oxidizes during use, forming a low-conductivity passivation film, which results in high interfacial contact resistance and increased ohmic losses. A common and effective approach is to apply highly conductive and corrosion-resistant coatings, such as pure metals, nitrides, or carbides, on the titanium surface. Carbon materials are widely used as protective coatings for metal bipolar plates and diffusion layers due to their low cost and excellent electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance.
[0003] Currently, the mainstream coating deposition technologies include physical vapor deposition (PVD) and chemical vapor deposition (CVD). However, due to the poor lattice and thermal expansion coefficient matching between carbon materials and metals, the bonding strength between carbon materials and the base metal is often low, leading to coating detachment over time. Traditional deposition techniques address this bonding strength issue primarily through two methods: one is the use of heterogeneous epitaxial growth techniques, which utilizes lattice matching to reduce lattice distortion and defects caused by lattice constant mismatch, thereby improving material matching and enhancing adhesion. The other is the use of thermal expansion coefficient matching between different materials to reduce overall thermal expansion differences in the coating, thereby alleviating stress and deformation and ensuring structural stability. These traditional deposition techniques often require the stepwise matching of different materials to form a multi-component, multi-layered coating structure. However, differences in lattice structure and thermal expansion coefficient between the different materials still exist, inevitably increasing coating thickness and the number of process steps. Efficient and convenient technologies for the preparation of strong bonding coatings have long been a pressing need in the field of protective coatings for PEMWE and PEMFC equipment components. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to overcome the defects of the prior art and provide a carbon-wrapped oxide coating on the surface of a titanium material, a preparation method and application thereof. The present invention obtains a carbon-wrapped oxide coating with high uniformity, high bonding strength, corrosion resistance and high conductivity on the surface of the titanium material. The obtained carbon-wrapped oxide coating is used for the titanium-based bipolar plates and diffusion layer surfaces of PEMWE and PEMFC equipment, which can effectively prevent titanium metal corrosion while improving the durability of the coating. The preparation method is simple and convenient.
[0005] The mechanism of the coating preparation of the present invention is as follows Figure 1 As shown, metal-organic framework materials are used as carbon sources. Based on the high matching of similar materials, the highly reactive defect sites on the surface of titanium materials are utilized as nucleation centers in the organic titanium metal framework, which rapidly react with organic carboxylic acid ligands to generate strongly bound Ti-O ionic bonds, and then the organic metal framework material is grown in situ, and then a carbon-wrapped oxide coating material is formed by annealing.
[0006] The present invention is achieved through the following solutions.
[0007] The first object of the present invention is to provide a method for preparing a carbon-coated oxide coating on the surface of a titanium material, comprising the following steps:
[0008] The titanium material is treated with an inorganic acid solution to obtain a defect-rich titanium material.
[0009] The organic carboxylic acid ligand, anhydrous methanol and N,N-dimethylformamide are uniformly mixed, and added into the defect-rich titanium material for adsorption, so that the organic carboxylic acid ligand forms a Ti-O ionic bond with the defect sites in the titanium material.
[0010] Then, the metal ligand titanium isopropoxide is added to the system and reacted at 80°C to 150°C. During the reaction, titanium isopropoxide and the organic carboxylic acid ligand in situ grow a metal organic framework material on the surface of the titanium material to form a titanium material loaded with a metal organic framework material coating.
[0011] The titanium material loaded with the metal organic framework material coating is subjected to annealing, carbonization and oxidation treatment to obtain a carbon-wrapped oxide coating on the surface of the titanium material.
[0012] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the organic carboxylic acid ligand is one of terephthalic acid, 2-aminoterephthalic acid, 2,5-dihydroxyterephthalic acid and 3,3',5,5'-tetracarboxydiphenylmethane.
[0013] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the molar ratio of the organic carboxylic acid ligand, anhydrous methanol and N,N-dimethylformamide is 1:10-20:20-40.
[0014] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the molar ratio of titanium isopropoxide to the organic carboxylic acid ligand is 0.5 to 1:1.
[0015] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the reaction time is 10 h to 100 h.
[0016] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the annealing, carbonization and oxidation treatments are performed in a muffle furnace in an air atmosphere at a temperature of 200° C. to 800° C. for a holding time of 10 min to 120 min.

[0021] The third object of the present invention is to provide the application of the carbon-wrapped oxide coating on the surface of the titanium material in the protection of proton exchange membrane water electrolysis and hydrogen fuel cell equipment.
[0022] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0023] The present invention first uses an inorganic acid to treat a titanium material to obtain a defect-rich titanium material; then, the defect-rich titanium material is immersed in a solution containing an organic carboxylic acid ligand, so that the defect-rich titanium material adsorbs the organic carboxylic acid ligand, and the organic carboxylic acid ligand forms a Ti-O ion bond with a defect site in the titanium material. The solvent is made of anhydrous methanol and N,N-dimethylformamide, the anhydrous methanol can stabilize the organic carboxylic acid ligand and can regulate the balance between subsequent nucleation and growth of a metal organic framework; the N,N-dimethylformamide is subsequently decomposed into dimethylamine after heating, which can deprotonate the organic carboxylic acid ligand, promote ligand dissolution, and further form coordination with the metal defect site; then, a metal ligand titanium isopropoxide is added to the system, and at 80°C to 150°C, the titanium isopropoxide and the organic carboxylic acid ligand in situ grow a metal organic framework material on the surface of the titanium material; the titanium material loaded with the metal organic framework material coating is annealed, carbonized, and oxidized to obtain a carbon-coated oxide coating on the surface of the titanium material. The coating prepared by the above method is tightly bonded to the titanium base material in the form of Ti-O covalent bonds, avoiding the shedding and cracking of the coating caused by the mismatch between the carbon layer and the base metal material, improving the bonding strength between the carbon layer and the base metal material, and the coating preparation method is simple, convenient and easy to implement.

[0035] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand and implement the technical solutions of the present invention, the present invention is further described below with reference to specific examples and accompanying drawings. However, the examples are not intended to limit the present invention. The experimental methods and detection methods described in the following examples are conventional methods unless otherwise specified; the reagents and materials described are commercially available unless otherwise specified.
[0036] The present invention provides a method for preparing a carbon-coated oxide coating on the surface of a titanium material, comprising the following steps:
[0037] (1) The titanium material is treated with an inorganic acid to obtain a defect-rich titanium material.
[0038] It should be noted that when the titanium material is immersed in an inorganic acid solution, titanium generates metal cations under acidic conditions, which causes highly reactive defect sites on the surface of the titanium material.
[0039] (2) The organic carboxylic acid ligand, anhydrous methanol and N,N-dimethylformamide are mixed evenly, and the defect-rich titanium material is added for adsorption, so that the organic carboxylic acid ligand forms a Ti-O ionic bond with the defect sites in the titanium material.
[0040] It should be noted that anhydrous methanol and N, N-dimethylformamide act as solvents. The reason for choosing this solvent is that anhydrous methanol can stabilize the organic carboxylic acid ligands and regulate the balance between nucleation and growth of the metal organic framework. N, N-dimethylformamide decomposes into dimethylamine after heating, which can deprotonate the organic carboxylic acid ligands, promote the dissolution of the ligands, and further bind to the Ti at the metal defect site. 3+ Form coordination.
[0041] Organic carboxylic acid ligands are precursors for the generation of metal-organic framework materials. They are first coordinated with defect sites in titanium materials to form Ti-O ionic bonds, thereby improving the bonding strength between the subsequently generated coating and the titanium material substrate.
[0042] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the organic carboxylic acid ligand may be one of terephthalic acid, 2-aminoterephthalic acid, 2,5-dihydroxyterephthalic acid and 3,3',5,5'-tetracarboxydiphenylmethane.
[0043] (3) Then, the metal ligand titanium isopropoxide is added to the system and reacted at 80°C to 150°C. During the reaction, titanium isopropoxide and organic carboxylic acid ligands grow in situ on the surface of the titanium material, and the titanium metal ion center and the bridging organic ligand are interconnected through self-assembly to form an organic-inorganic hybrid metal-organic framework material, thereby obtaining a titanium material loaded with a metal-organic framework coating.
[0044] It should be noted that titanium isopropoxide is selected as the metal ligand because: titanium isopropoxide is soluble in organic solvents, is resistant to acid and oxidation at room temperature, has stable chemical properties, and as a metal ion source, it continuously coordinates and polymerizes with the precursor carboxylic acid through self-assembly in the solution to form a metal-organic framework material coating.
[0045] (4) The titanium material loaded with the metal organic framework coating is subjected to annealing, carbonization and oxidation treatment to obtain a carbon-coated oxide coating on the surface of the titanium material.
[0046] It should be noted that the carbon-encapsulated oxide coating here refers to the reaction between the titanium ions at the center of the metal ions and oxygen to form titanium oxide. The organic ligands in the metal-organic framework material are carbonized at high temperature, encapsulating the titanium oxide in a carbon layer to form a coating material, which is then loaded onto the titanium substrate. This coating has high conductivity and high corrosion resistance, and is tightly bonded to the titanium substrate via Ti-O covalent bonds. This avoids coating shedding and cracking caused by the mismatch between the carbon layer and the base metal material, and improves the bonding strength between the carbon layer and the base metal material.
[0047] In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the annealing, carbonization and oxidation are carried out in a muffle furnace in an air atmosphere at a temperature of 200° C. to 800° C. for a holding time of 10 min to 120 min.
[0048] The present invention will be specifically described below through the following examples.

After heating to 80° C., the titanium plate was immersed in the oxalic acid solution for 10 min. The titanium plate was then taken out and rinsed with ultrapure water to obtain a defect-rich titanium plate.
[0052] (2) A mixed solution of 2-aminoterephthalic acid (NH2-BDC), anhydrous methanol (MeOH), and 40 mL of N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) was prepared at a molar ratio of 1:15:30 and stirred at room temperature until the NH2-BDC was fully dissolved. The defect-rich titanium sheet from step (1) was then added to the mixed solution and adsorbed with stirring for 24 h.

[0061] Comparative Example 2
[0062] A method for obtaining a carbon-coated titanium oxide coated titanium sheet by directly sputtering carbon and titanium oxide materials through physical vapor deposition magnetron sputtering technology, wherein the specific steps are as follows:
[0063] (1) Use acetone, ethanol and water to rinse the titanium plate in sequence to clean the surface, remove oil and dust.
[0064] (2) The titanium plate was placed in a magnetron sputtering chamber, carbon was used as the sputtering target, Ar was used as the working gas, the gas flow rate was set to 30 sccm, the chamber temperature was set to 150°C, the sputtering pressure was set to 1 Pa, the power was set to 400 W, the bias voltage was set to 60 V, and the sputtering time was set to 300 s.

[0066] (4) The titanium plate of the carbon-composite titanium oxide coating material obtained in step (3) is placed in a magnetron sputtering chamber, and carbon is used as a sputtering target for sputtering.

[0067] The titanium plate of the carbon-coated titanium oxide coating material obtained in step (4) of Example 1 was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and the obtained Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4 .from Figure 2 It can be seen that the obtained carbon-wrapped titanium oxide coating material is uniform and dense on the surface of the titanium plate. Figure 3 The thickness of the coating is about 200 nm. Figure 4 It can be seen that the coating element composition obviously contains Ti, C, and O elements.

Figure 5 In step a, use a sharp tool to cross-hatch the coated titanium material, then firmly stick the special 3M tape on the test area and then tear it off. Compare the cross-hatch test area with the ISO 2409:1992 adhesion standard. Figure 5 As can be seen in middle b, after the tape was removed, the cut edge was almost smooth, with no cells falling off.

Figure 5 As shown in Figure d, after the tape was removed, the coating fell off in large fragments along the cut edges, and some grids fell off completely, with the affected area exceeding 65%. These results indicate that the prepared carbon-coated titanium oxide coating has extremely poor adhesion, falling within the ISO Class 5 standard.

Figure 5 As can be seen in Figure f, there is slight peeling after the tape is removed, and the affected cut area is greater than 5% but less than 15%. The results show that the prepared carbon-encapsulated titanium oxide coating has poor adhesion and belongs to the ISO Class 2 standard.
[0071] At 80°C and with a continuous flow of 20 sccm H2, a corrosive acid solution (0.5 M H2SO4 and 5 ppm F - ) was used as the electrolyte to simulate the working environment of the anode bipolar plate and the diffusion layer in the proton exchange membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE) device. A three-electrode system (Ag / AgCl as the reference electrode and platinum as the counter electrode) was used to perform a potentiodynamic polarization (Tafel) test (polarization voltage was -0.6 to 2 V) on the titanium plate of the carbon-wrapped titanium oxide coating material obtained in step (4) of Example 1, and the results were obtained. Figure 6 .from Figure 6 It can be seen that the self-corrosion potential of pure titanium plate is -0.33V, and the corrosion current density under the self-corrosion potential is 9.88μA·cm 2 The self-corrosion potential of the titanium plate coated with carbon-coated titanium oxide is -0.22 V, and the corrosion current density at the self-corrosion potential is 0.75 μA·cm 2 The carbon-coated titanium oxide coating has better corrosion resistance.
