Bipolar Plates: Different Materials and Processing Methods for Their Usage in Fuel Cells

Graphite composites based bipolar plates are a preferred material for stationary PEM fuel cell applications, because they are resistant against high temperatures and corrosive conditions. This chapter gives an overview about different material configurations as well as the most important parameters...
