Problems solved by technology

[0002] Hydrogen energy fuel cell bipolar plates are divided into metal bipolar plates and graphite bipolar plates. At present, the unit price of metal bipolar plates is high and the service life is short, so that they cannot be widely promoted; graphite bipolar plates are further divided into engraved graphite bipolar plates. , flexible molded expanded graphite bipolar plate and molded graphite composite plate. The engraved graphite bipolar plate takes too long to process, and the single-chip double-channel plate requires a CNC processing cycle of 1 hour. The unit price of the product is high and cannot meet large quantities. Flexible molded expanded graphite bipolar plates have high production efficiency, but low strength and low conductivity, which cannot meet the requirements of ultra-thin graphite bipolar plates. Molded graphite composite bipolar plates have high strength and can produce ultra-thin bipolar plates. board, but the existing process route is thermosetting molding, and the molding time is more than 20 minutes. Suitable for mass production promotion
