摘要

Time dependences (up to 1000 h) of oxidation resistance and surface electrical conductivity characteristics of stainless steels and α‑ and pseudo α‑titanium alloys during holding at 600 °C in air and wet hydrogen (H2 + 30 vol.% H2O) were compared. These characteristics are lower in the anodic environment of fuel cells compared to the cathodic one. It was found that these characteristics of the studied titanium alloys are inferior to stainless steels, especially of 316L steel, which, in particular, seems to be related to their tendency to hydride formation.
