Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract This study aimed at developing highly conductive, lightweight, and low‐cost bipolar plates for use in proton exchange membrane fuel cells. Injection and compression molding of carbon‐filled polypropylene, PP, and polyphenylene sulfide, PPS, were used to fabricate the bipolar plates. Loadings up to 60 wt% in the form of graphite, conductive carbon black, and carbon fibers were investigated. The developed compositions have a combination of properties and processability suitable for fuel cell bipolar plate manufacturing, such as good chemical resistance, sufficient fluidity, and good electrical and thermal conductivity. Two bipolar plate designs were successfully fabricated by molding the gas flow channels over aluminum plates to form a metallic/polymer composite plate or simply by direct injection molding of the conductive polymer composite. For the first design, overall plate volume resistivities of 0.2 and 0.1 Ohm‐cm were respectively attained using PP and PPS based blends as the conductive overmolded layer. A lower volume resistivity of around 0.06 Ohm‐cm was attained for the second design with injection molded plates made of the PPS‐based blend. Polym. Eng.

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
