Embodiment Construction

[0053] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0054] figure 1 Among them, the composite bipolar plate used for micro-fuel cells has a substrate 1 on which several three-dimensional microchannels 4 are regularly arranged, and a conductive layer 2 is attached to the upper surface of the overall substrate 1. On the conductive layer 2 with a protective layer 3 attached. Among them, the substrate 1 is a UV-curable polymer conductive material, the conductive layer 2 is made of high-conductivity copper, and the anti-corrosion protection layer 3 is made of bright nickel. The three-dimensional microchannels 4 are arranged in parallel and evenly spaced.

[0055] The composite bipolar plate of the micro-fuel cell of the present invention uses a UV-curable polymer conductive material as a matrix, high-conductivity copper as a conductive layer, and bright nickel as an anti-corrosion protection layer. Its prod...

Abstract

This invention discloses a compound double pole plate for micro-fuel cell and its the preparation method, that is as follows: take a ultraviolet ray solidification polymer conducting material as thesubstrate, take high electric conductive copper as electric conductive layer, take bright nickel as corrosion resistance protective layer. Its manufacture uses a compound preparation craft, this craft units the advantages of the micro stamping (a low cost, big area, high efficiency microstructure composite craft) and the electric brush plating (a low cost micro plating craft), through nitrogeninfiltration superficial modification processing to copper nickel coating, enhance the double pole plate inoxidizability, reduces the contact resistance. All technological processes are conducted under normal temperature atmospheric pressure environmen. Advantages: low production cost, simple process and suitable to bulk production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a micro-fuel bipolar plate, in particular to a composite bipolar plate for a micro-fuel cell and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Micro Fuel Cell (μFC) has become the best choice for micro batteries and micro energy due to its high energy conversion efficiency, high specific energy, environmental protection, rapid startup, light weight, small size, and simple structure. It has extremely broad application prospects in various portable electronic products and MEMS systems. Bipolar plates (collector plates, flow field plates, Bipolar Plates, BPPs) are one of the key components of micro fuel cells, which play an extremely important role in the performance, volume, life, cost, miniaturization and light weight of micro fuel cells. effect. [0003] At present, the biggest challenges faced by bipolar plates for micro fuel cells are: low cost, miniaturization and high performance. The flow field of the exis...
