Abstract: A lamellar structure graphite foil is used as a material for a separator for a fuel cell, and a hydrophobic layer is formed by impregnation on flow-field channels of the graphite foil. Such a separator is manufactured by forming the flow field channel by etching the graphite foil formed with the mask pattern thereon and forming a hydrophobic layer by impregnation. According to such a separator, performance of a fuel cell stack is enhanced and the manufacturing process of a separator is simplified.

Abstract: Disclosed is a cell voltage monitoring apparatus for monitoring output voltages of a plurality of unit cells in a cell having the unit cells. The cell voltage monitoring apparatus includes: a reference voltage generator for generating a predetermined reference voltage from the unit cell generation voltage; a voltage comparator for comparing a generation voltage of a monitor unit cell and the reference voltage; a signal separator for outputting a signal that is electrically separated from an output signal of the voltage comparator; and an operation processor for determining normality of the cell voltage from a signal output by the signal separator.
