Problems solved by technology

[0002] Due to the characteristics of graphite itself, the currently used graphite bipolar plates are highly brittle and have a large amount of compression deformation. During the repeated installation of fuel cell stacks, they are prone to damage such as fragmentation, which seriously affects the overall performance and yield of fuel cells.
Simply adopting the method of pasting graphite flow channels on the metal plate, the bonding force between the metal plate and the graphite flow channel is poor, and the bonding process after the graphite plate is formed is complicated

Abstract

The present invention provides a composite graphite bipolar plate. The composite graphite bipolar plate a porous metal plate having a plurality of through holes, runner ridges which are arranged on two opposite surfaces of the porous metal plate, and fixing columns which are arranged in the through holes corresponding to the runner ridges, wherein the fixing columns and the runner ridges are integrally formed in a compression molding mode. The composite graphite bipolar plate is advantaged in that effective combination is achieved by embedding graphite powder into the porous plate, toughness and strength of the graphite plate are improved through the metal framework, comprehensive performance of the bipolar plate is effectively improved, reduction of the thickness of the bipolar plate is facilitated, meanwhile, the forming process is simple, and batch production is facilitated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of fuel cells, in particular to a composite graphite bipolar plate and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Due to the characteristics of graphite itself, the currently used graphite bipolar plate is highly brittle and has a large amount of compression deformation. During the repeated installation of the fuel cell stack, it is very prone to damage such as fragmentation, which seriously affects the overall performance and yield of the fuel cell. Simply adopting the method of sticking the graphite flow channel on the metal plate, the bonding force between the metal plate and the graphite flow channel is poor, and the bonding process after the graphite plate is formed is complicated. Contents of the invention [0003] The composite graphite bipolar plate and the preparation method provided by the invention can improve the binding force between the metal plate and the flow channel.
