Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of hydrogen fuel cells, and in particular relates to a preparation method of a high gas-barrier expanded graphite monopolar plate and a hydrogen fuel cell. Background technique [0002] As a highly efficient, non-polluting and clean energy, hydrogen fuel cells have been widely used in many fields such as automobiles and aerospace. The bipolar plate is the main component of a hydrogen fuel cell, consisting of a hydrogen unipolar plate, an oxygen unipolar plate, and a proton exchange membrane between the two plates. The hydrogen unipolar plate and one side of the proton exchange membrane form a hydrogen cavity filled with hydrogen catalyst, and the oxygen unipolar plate and the other side of the proton exchange membrane form an oxygen cavity. In the hydrogen chamber, the hydrogen molecules are oxidized to generate electrons and hydrogen protons. The hydrogen protons enter the oxygen chamber through the proton...
