Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of polymer materials, and in particular relates to a bipolar plate of expanded graphite / polyimide composite material and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Polyimide (PI) adhesive, as a new type of high temperature resistant adhesive, is widely used in aircraft manufacturing, aviation and military fields. With the vigorous development of aerospace and military technology, the requirements for the adhesive performance, antistatic, and high temperature resistance of PI adhesives are gradually increasing, but the existing PI adhesives have been difficult to meet the needs of the development of the aerospace industry. Therefore, it is of great significance and research value to modify PI adhesives and develop PI composite adhesives with high performance and multifunctionality. [0003] Graphene (Graphene, G) has excellent physical and chemical properties, and is a good reinforcement material for ...
