Abstract | Titanium nitride (TiN)-modified hydrophobic-treated carbon paper (CP) was prepared by impregnating CP with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) emulsion containing TiN nanoparticles (NPs). Electrochemical measurements showed that CP witnessed an increase in corrosion resistance and electrical resistivity after treated with 5 wt% PTFE emulsion. Since the sacrifice in electrical conductivity is not beneficial to the application in proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs), conductive ceramic NPs – TiN NPs were introduced into the CP to further improve its electrical conductivity. It was found that after adding TiN NPs, the electrical resistivity of CP (immersed in 5 wt% PTFE emulsion containing 8 wt% TiN NPs) decreased to a level (3.8 mΩ cm) similar to that of untreated CP (3.5 mΩ cm), and meanwhile there is a further improvement in corrosion resistance, where the corrosion current density (at 1.4 V) of TiN-modified CP stabilises at the lowest value of 5.50 μA/cm2, as compared with 32.8 and 12.7 μA/cm2 for raw CP and PTFE-treated CP. According to microstructure characterisation, these improvements could be attributable to the formation of conductive networks and improved PTFE distribution due to the addition of TiN NPs. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
