Abstract

The invention discloses novel phenolic resin and application thereof in preparation of a flexible graphite-based bipolar plate, and relates to the technical field of bipolar plate processing and manufacturing. The preparation method of the novel phenolic resin comprises the following steps: mixing the raw materials, and carrying out condensation polymerization under the action of an acid catalyst to generate the novel phenolic resin, wherein the raw material components at least comprise phenol and 3-(oxirane-2-yl methoxy) benzaldehyde. The prepared novel phenolic resin is applied to preparation of the bipolar plate, the mechanical property of the bipolar plate is remarkably improved, meanwhile, the conductivity of the bipolar plate can be obviously enhanced, and the air tightness and the acid and alkali resistance are better.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of bipolar plate processing and manufacture, and particularly relates to a novel phenolic resin and its use in preparing flexible graphite-based bipolar plates. Background technique [0002] The bipolar plate is a key component in a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC), in which it functions to distribute fuel gas and air, realize the electrical connection between the monolithic cells, remove waste heat from the active area, prevent gas and coolant leakage as well as facilitating functions such as water management in the battery. In recent years, polymer / flexible graphite material has become a suitable fuel cell bipolar plate material due to its low cost, high electrical conductivity, high flexibility, and easy processing. In the prior art, there are two main methods for preparing such bipolar plates by using flexible graphite sheets as raw materials. One is to form a low-density flexible graphite sh...
