  • Publication number: 20230170495
    Abstract: Disclosed are a separator for fuel cells capable of minimizing the volume of a system and the use of sealants, and a stack for fuel cells, more particularly, a stack for solid oxide fuel cells, including the same. Specifically, by adding a metal sheet having a specific shape, position and size to the separator, the stress applied to the sealant can be uniformized, and thus the oxidizing agent and fuel can be separated and electrically isolated using only a piece of sealant. Therefore, the stack for fuel cells is characterized in that there is no variation in temperature, reactant concentration, power, or the like between respective unit cells, so delamination and microcracks do not occur, the volume is minimized, and the power density per unit volume is very high.

  • Publication number: 20220270792
    Abstract: Provided is a Fe-based soft magnetic alloy. A Fe-based soft magnetic alloy according to an embodiment of the present invention is expressed by the empirical formula FeaBbCcCudNbe, wherein a, b, c, d, and e represent atomic percents (at %) of corresponding elements and satisfy 78.0?a?84.5 and 15.5?b+c+d+e?22.0. Hence, the Fe-based soft magnetic alloy has a high saturated magnetic flux density and high permeability characteristics and thus can be utilized for small and lightweight components, and has low coercive force and low magnetic loss characteristics and thus very easily finds applications in high-performance/high-efficiency components. Furthermore, the Fe-based soft magnetic alloy can minimize the effect of heat treatment conditions in the implementation of uniform grains with a small particle diameter after heat treatment, thereby greatly facilitating the design of process conditions, and thus is very suitable in mass production.
