Influence the filler orientation on the performance of bipolar plate

Bipolar plates significantly contribute to the development of the polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cells technology due to their ability to produce high electrical conductivity based on the type of materials used. Mismatching of inappropriate materials and manufacture may lead to the inferior...
