Abstract

The invention relates to a machining method of a fuel cell bipolar plate. According to the machining method, flow channels are processed on a graphite bipolar plate blank by utilizing laser accordingto a target flow channel structure chart, so that a formed graphite bipolar plate is obtained. The spot diameter of the laser in the method of the invention is micron-sized. According to the machiningmethod, the laser is used for machining the flow channels, so that no mechanical stress is generated in laser machining; the spot diameter is small, and therefore the laser can machine the flow channels with narrower ridge width which are arranged more densely; and the ultra-dense flow channels are beneficial to the diffusion of reaction gas and the improvement of the performance of the bipolar plate. The machining method further involves surface cleaning treatment and surface hydrophobic treatment performed on the formed graphite bipolar plate, so that and water does not tend to accumulate in the flow channels which have been subjected to the surface hydrophobic treatment. The gas conveying capacity of the bipolar plate formed by the machining method is enhanced, and the performance of the bipolar plate is also improved.

Description

Technical field [0001] This application relates to the technical field of fuel cells, and in particular to a method for processing a fuel cell bipolar plate. Background technique [0002] The bipolar plate is the core component of the fuel cell, and the design of the bipolar plate is the core factor that determines the performance of the fuel cell. The surface of the bipolar plate is provided with structures such as a cathode runner, an anode runner, and a cooling runner. The flow channel structure undertakes the functions of reaction gas distribution, gas cooling, and drainage in the fuel cell. [0003] In the prior art, the bipolar plate runner grooves are usually processed by machine tool processing and compression molding. Reducing the width of the spine of the flow channel can increase the diffusion efficiency of the reactive gas to the area under the spine. Therefore, increasing the density of the flow channel arrangement can improve the performance of the fuel cell. Due t...
