Bipolar Plates are one of the core components of the fuel cells, which accounts for a large portion of the quality and cost of the battery pack. It is responsible for the functions of uniform distribution of reaction gas, conduction of current, and series of single cells. In order to meet these functional requirements, the ideal bipolar plate should have high thermal/electrical conductivity, corrosion resistance, low density, good mechanical properties, low cost, and easy processing. However, the current bipolar plates have problems such as poor corrosion resistance and conductivity, high production costs and short lifespan. Realizing the reasonable matching of the conductivity and corrosion resistance of the bipolar plate material, that is, achieving high corrosion resistance under the premise of ensuring reasonable conductivity, ensuring the service life of the entire system, is one of the key steps in the commercialization of fuel cells.
