Graphite energy storage plate

What are graphite bipolar plates for fuel cells?

Our graphite bipolar plates for fuel cells are manufactured specifically for the PEMFC and DMFC types. Through many years of research and development work, we have succeeded in optimizing the outstanding material properties of our high-performance materials and enabling the production of high volumes.

How does a graphite plate function in a fuel cell?

In a fuel cell, the graphite plate functions as both a conductor to receive energy from the electrodes and as a bipolar plate to guide the flow of hydrogen and oxygen through their respective ends of the stack. This ensures that the maximum amount of gasses and moisture comes in contact with the membrane.

What can you do with graphite bipolar plates?

Our experienced product managers will be happy to help you. Imagine. With Carbon. Molded as well as extruded graphite bipolar plates for use in fuel cells as well as redox flow batteries and stationary energy storage systems.

Can graphite composites be used in thermal energy storage?

Recently a comprehensive review was conducted on the use of graphite composites in thermal energy storage . The analysis included numerous carbon materials such as graphite (G), graphite foams (GF), graphite fibres (GF), expanded graphite (EG), graphite nanoplatelets (GNP), graphene (GRF) and carbon nanotubes (CNT).

What is the energy storage mechanism of graphite anode?

The energy storage mechanism, i.e. the lithium storage mechanism, of graphite anode involves the intercalation and de-intercalation of Li ions, forming a series of graphite intercalation compounds (GICs). Extensive efforts have been engaged in the mechanism investigation and performance enhancement of Li-GIC in the past three decades.

Can graphite improve lithium storage performance?

Recent research indicates that the lithium storage performance of graphite can be further improved, demonstrating the promising perspective of graphite and in future advanced LIBs for electric vehicles and grid-scale energy storage stations.
