Problems solved by technology

However, the bipolar plate prepared by this process requires a curing time of up to 1 day, and the production efficiency is low, which is not conducive to the reduction of the cost of the bipolar plate
Daniel Adams et al. (Energy Fuels2017, 31, 14320-14331) used the method of adding a carbon felt intermediate transition layer to prepare a composite bipolar plate with a "sandwich" structure. The composite plate has high bending strength and conductivity, but the preparation process is relatively complicated and the preparation cost is high

Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of fuel cells, and discloses a preparation method of a carbon / polymer composite bipolar board. The bipolar board is a carbon / polymer composite board composed of acrylonitrile butadiene styrene resin, polyvinylidene fluoride resin, polypropylene, a conductive filler, and a fiber reinforced material. The composite bipolar board has good machinability, excellent electrical conductivity and durability. The bipolar board exhibits comparable performances to traditional commercial graphite sheets in full battery testing.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of fuel cells, and in particular relates to a carbon / polymer-based composite bipolar plate and its preparation method and application. Background technique [0002] A fuel cell (FC) is an energy conversion device that can directly convert chemical energy into electrical energy. It has the advantages of high energy conversion efficiency (40-60%), environmental friendliness, fast start-up speed, long working life, etc., so it has received more and more attention, especially in automotive power, mobile power and fixed It has broad application prospects in power stations and other aspects. However, the high cost of fuel cells greatly restricts its commercial application, and the cost of bipolar plates accounts for 30%-45% of the cost of fuel cell stacks. [0003] The current commercialized bipolar plates are mainly non-porous graphite plates and modified metal plates. The non-porous graphite plates are obtaine...
