A Comprehensive Guide to Bipolar Plate Manufacturing Process

Leave a Comment / Fuel Cell / By

Electrolyzers and fuel cells rely on thin, engineered plates that do more than provide structure. The bipolar plate manufacturing process results in components that introduce, direct, and control various gases, conduct electricity, and control heat in the stack. Because thousands of plates may be required for one system, small differences in production can affect efficiency, […]

Bipolar Plate

Choosing the Right Bipolar Plate Material for Your Fuel Cell

Leave a Comment / Fuel Cell / By

Bipolar plates are flat components within fuel cells that generate electricity. They may be found in hydrogen vehicles, back-up power generation units, and industrial solutions. Certain materials may be long-lasting but very expensive. Metal plates have great conductivity, graphite plates have typically better resistance to chemicals, and composite materials seem to sort of do both.
