Flow Field Plates (FFP)

Improve power density and performance for next-generation fuel cells

Manufactured from expanded natural graphite, GRAFCELL® Flow Field Plate (FFP) components retain a continuous graphitic phase, which can be tailored up to 500W/m-K.  GRAFCELL® Components enable much lighter and thinner design flexibility compared to traditional materials.

Features and Benefits

  • Able to be machined and molded
  • Non-Corrosive
  • Increased design flexibility
  • Unique phase continutiy
  • Extremely low contact resistance
  • Provides superior electrical and thermal properties compared to both synthetic graphit composit and metallic fuel cell components
  • Thermal diffusivity is 8 to 12 times higher than composit materials, 33 times higher than stainless steel
  • Over two million kilometers of proven road experience annually
  • Unlike metal, GRAFCELL® expanded natural graphite will never corrode, resulting in consistent long-term fuel cell use.
