Experimental Study on the Performance of DMFC Using Novel Composite Materials of Polypyrrole-Coated Polypropylene as BPs
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Polypropylene/three-carbon-filler composite bipolar plates (BPs) of direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) were fabricated by an injection molding. The composite materials were made of polypropylene (PP), carbon black, carbon fiber and graphite. Gas flow channel surfaces on the BPs were subsequently modified by polypyrrole (PPy) using a coating technique in order to improve surface electrical conductivity. This research is a feasibility study to use PPy-coated PP composite as BPs in a DMFC. The surface electrical resistance and performance in a fuel cell containing the composite BPs under DMFC operating conditions were evaluated against conventional graphite BPs. The surface resistance values of PPy-coated PP composites decreased around six orders of magnitude, compared with those values of PP composites. According to the performance results, PPy-coated composite BPs can be used in DMFC if the surface adhesion between a PPy layer and the BP surface was further improved.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
