Description
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of fuel cells, in particular to a bipolar plate of a fuel cell and the fuel cell.
Background
A fuel cell is a device for generating electric energy using an electrochemical reaction of a fuel and an oxidant, and a single fuel cell unit supplies too small a voltage, so that it is necessary to arrange a plurality of single cells in series in a stacked manner. In this arrangement, two adjacent cells may share a common plate, which serves as the anode and cathode of the two adjacent cells, respectively, i.e. the two adjacent cells are connected in series by the plate, which serves as the anode of one of the cells and the cathode of the other cell, and is referred to as a bipolar plate.
The bipolar plate plays important roles of gas distribution, electric conduction, heat conduction, water drainage and the like in the working process of the fuel cell, and the finding of a novel bipolar plate material with excellent performance and low cost and a processing method are important subjects of the fuel cell. The bipolar plate types in the industry are currently classified into metal bipolar plates, graphite bipolar plates, and the like.
The metal bipolar plate has the advantages of high power, low cost and strong pressure resistance, but the metal corrosion resistance is weaker, and meanwhile, a proton exchange membrane in the fuel cell during operation can be slightly degraded, so that the pH value of generated water is weak acidity, an oxide film on the oxygen electrode side of the metal bipolar plate can be thickened, and the cell performance is reduced. Under the circumstances, a nano coating mode is needed, so that the microstructure of the nano coating is continuous and compact under the micro condition, and the nano coating is well combined with a matrix. In the processing technology, when the metal plate is stamped, after one surface of the metal plate is processed into a groove, the other surface of the metal plate is correspondingly protruded, so that the two metal plates are difficult to bond, and meanwhile, the metal plate has large mass, so that the fuel cell is overweight.
The graphite bipolar plate has the advantages of strong corrosion resistance and good electric and thermal conductivity, but has poor air tightness, higher cost and long processing time. In terms of processing technology, CNC (Computerized Numerical Control) equipment is mainly used for fine modification, flow field design and engraving, the manufacturing time is long, the mass production capacity is not available, the cost of the method can often account for one third of the cost of a battery stack, and the method can only be used for experimental products. In addition, the graphite bipolar plate has low strength and is easy to break.
In the prior art, a composite bipolar plate is formed by compounding a metal plate and a graphite plate, so that the strength of the graphite plate is improved. However, the composite bipolar plate is formed by embedding the metal plate into the groove of the graphite plate, the thickness of the bipolar plate is increased due to the structure, the heat dissipation effect is poor, air is easily clamped between the metal plate and the graphite plate, and if the air between the metal plate and the graphite plate is not completely exhausted, the phenomenon of poor contact can be caused, and the inside of the battery can expand to damage the battery in the use process of the fuel battery.
In the existing composite bipolar plate, in order to ensure the complete adhesion between the metal plate and the graphite plate, the gas between the metal plate and the graphite plate needs to be exhausted, and the metal plate and the graphite plate are completely bonded by using conductive adhesive, but the conductive adhesive is expensive, and the manufacturing cost of the bipolar plate is increased.

Preferably, the graphite plate is a flexible graphite plate, and the first flow path is formed by pressing the surface of the graphite plate.
Preferably, the first flow path is an oxidizer flow path, the second flow path is a fuel flow path, and the third flow path is a cooling flow path through which a coolant or a cooling gas can pass.
Preferably, a groove corresponding to the third flow path is further provided on one surface of the graphite plate facing the metal plate, and the groove and the third flow path are spliced to form a cooling flow path through which a coolant or a cooling gas can pass.
Preferably, the grooves are formed by pressing on the surface of the graphite plate.
Preferably, the graphite plate and the metal plate are bonded through glue or double-sided glue.

The invention also provides a fuel cell, which comprises the bipolar plate.
The bipolar plate of the fuel cell combines the graphite plate and the metal plate, can overcome the defects that the graphite bipolar plate is low in strength and easy to damage, and can solve the problem that the metal bipolar plate is easy to corrode. In addition, the third flow path between the metal plate and the graphite plate can be used as a cooling flow path which can rapidly cool the fuel cell and has a good heat radiation effect. Meanwhile, the bipolar plate is extruded in the process of assembling the fuel cell, and the metal plate is of a groove structure with alternate concave and convex, so that the metal plate can adapt to the shape of the graphite plate to generate micro deformation when being extruded, thereby being tightly attached to the graphite plate, improving the conductivity of the bipolar plate and reducing the internal resistance of the fuel cell. The bipolar plate only needs to be bonded at the edges of the metal plate and the graphite plate, and the metal plate and the graphite plate are not bonded at the positions using viscose, so that the bipolar plate can be bonded through extrusion force.

Compared with the processing mode of processing the flow path by using the engraving technology for the graphite bipolar plate in the prior art, the mode of pressing the graphite plate into the groove has the advantages of high production efficiency, low cost and batch production. At least a part of the metal plate 2 is pressed into a corrugated structure, grooves with alternate concave and convex shapes are formed on the front and back surfaces, the grooves extend along a straight line, the grooves on the side of the metal plate 2 opposite to the graphite plate 1 form a second flow path 21, and the grooves on the side of the metal plate 2 facing the graphite plate 1 form a third flow path 12.

The process that the bipolar plate assembles fuel cell can receive the extrusion, because metal sheet 2 is unsmooth alternate slot structure, when receiving the extrusion, metal sheet 2 can adapt to the shape production micro-deformation of graphite plate 1 to tightly laminate with graphite plate 1, further improved the conductivity of bipolar plate, reduced fuel cell's internal resistance. The metal plate 2 is one of a stainless steel plate, a copper plate, an aluminum plate and a nickel plate, and the surface of the metal plate 2 can be plated with a corrosion-resistant material, so that the corrosion resistance of the metal plate 2 is increased. Graphite plate 1 and metal sheet 2's edge bond through viscose or double faced adhesive tape, at metal sheet 2 and graphite plate 1 position that does not use the viscose, the laminating is accomplished to accessible extrusion force.
In the bipolar plate in the embodiment, the graphite plate 1 is combined with the metal plate 2, so that the defect that the graphite bipolar plate is low in strength and easy to damage is overcome, and the problem that the metal bipolar plate is easy to corrode is solved. Compared with the prior art in which the grooves are formed by engraving the graphite bipolar plate, the groove-forming method of the graphite plate 1 of the embodiment has the advantages of high production efficiency, low cost and mass production.
