Problems solved by technology

Pure graphite bipolar plates have good electrical conductivity and chemical stability, but they are easy to break during processing and installation, have poor bending resistance, resulting in thicker thickness, and higher processing costs, which are limited in large-scale applications
The metal material bipolar plate has high mechanical strength and toughness, good electrical and thermal conductivity, and the good machining performance of the metal material makes the flow field easy to process and shape, but the metal material has poor corrosion resistance and cannot meet the requirements of the all-vanadium liquid flow. The demand for long-term stable operation of the battery
