METHOD OF PRODUCING SEPARATOR PLATES

A separator plate is produced by hot compacting a pliable and malleable material made from a blend of powder containing at least 70% carbon powder, 10-20% of poly-phenylene sulfide, PPS, and 0.005-10% PolyTetraFluoroEthylene, PTFE. Advantageously, the powder is suspended in water without using isopropanol. A method of producing a separator plate is also disclosed.
