  • Patent number: 11799094
    Abstract: The invention relates to a graphite micro-crystalline carbon coating for metal bipolar plates of fuel cells and an application thereof. The graphite micro-crystalline carbon coating is a graphite-like coating deposited on the surface of a metal bipolar plate, includes, by weight, 5%-50% of graphite micro-crystals, and has good compactness. Based on conventional magnetron sputtering technologies, the energy of deposited particles is changed by changing a target sputtering power source, the intensity of a sputtering magnetic field and the deposition temperature of the coating to change the structure of the carbon coating, so that the carbon coating with high conductivity, corrosion resistance, and stability is prepared.

  • Publication number: 20230025359
    Abstract: The invention relates to a single corrugated fuel cell and a cell stack. The single cell comprises an anode plate, a cathode plate, and a membrane electrode assembly; the anode plate is of a corrugated structure and a plurality of anode channels and anode ribs are arranged on the anode plate in parallel; the cathode plate is of a corrugated structure engaged with the anode plate and a plurality of cathode channels and cathode ribs are arranged on the cathode plate in parallel; the membrane electrode assembly is arranged between the anode plate and the cathode plate. The single cell presents a corrugated structure in a width direction of the channel. A plurality of single cells are stacked in sequence to form a fuel cell stack. Compared with the prior art, the invention significantly increases the reaction area per unit volume of the fuel cell through the corrugated structural design, thereby improving the power density of the fuel cell.
