Carbon Paper for Gas Diffusion Layer for PEM Fuel Cells

360ip’s Partner has developed a novel process for manufacturing carbon paper with a lower cost and better performance compared to conventional carbon paper. The carbon paper produced according to this technology provides advantages of low specific resistance, high strength and uniform porosity.

The 360ip Partner’s solution addresses the limitations of current carbon paper through the following:

Specific resistance: As low as 2.7mΩcm

Air permeability at room temperature of more than 2036 to 2853 ml.mm/(cm2·hr·mmAq)

Porosity of 75-78%

Bending strength of more than 45MPa.

Ability to accommodate roll-to-roll processing

Energy density comparable to that of the competitor’s under identical conditions
