SEPARATOR PLATE FOR A FUEL CELL, PRECURSOR THEREFORE AND ITS METHOD OF PRODUCTION

For production of a separator plate in a fuel cell, a malleable precursor sheet is made by mixing thermoplastic polymer, carbon fibers, and electroconductive carbon particles, which is then hot-compression molded as a single layer or multi-layer structure or multi-layer structure, where the layer thickness is less than the length of the carbon fibers.
