Abstract
Provided is an alloy material including a metal oxide thin layer that can be formed using a simple method at low cost and can further suppress volatilization of Cr, which causes deterioration of a fuel cell, compared with a case where conventional expensive materials are used. Disclosed is a manufacturing method for an alloy material including a coating treatment step for coating a substrate made of a Fe—Cr based alloy with Co, and an oxidation treatment step for performing oxidation treatment on the substrate in a moisture-containing atmosphere after the coating treatment step.
Claims3
An alloy material comprising:
- a substrate made of a Fe—Cr based alloy;
- and
- a layer formed on/over the substrate,
- wherein the Fe—Cr based alloy of the substrate contains Cu in an amount of 0.10 mass % or more and 1.0 mass % or less, Mn in an amount of 0.05 mass % or more, and Cr in an amount of 18 mass % or more and 25 mass % or less,
- the layer includes a first layer and a second layer,
- the first layer is formed on/over the substrate and is made of a metal oxide that contains Cr,
- wherein the second layer is formed on/over the first layer as a metal oxide layer that contains more Co than the first layer does as measured by EPMA analysis, and
- wherein the substrate contains more Co than the second layer does as measured by EPMA analysis.
