VET Energy is a professional manufacturer of advanced graphite plate for electrolysis, we use high-purity graphite materials, combined with advanced processing technology and precision design, can meet the needs of a variety of applications, and has the remarkable characteristics of high performance and long life
We have developed cost- effective graphite bipolar plates which requires the use of advanced bipolar plates with high electrical conductivity and good mechanical strength. It is refined by high-pressure forming, vacuum impregnation, and high-temperature heat treatment, our bipolar plate has the characteristics of wear resistance, temperature resistance, pressure resistance, corrosion resistance, creep resistance, oil-free self-lubrication, small expansion coefficient, and superior sealing performance.
We can machine the bipolar plates on both sides with flow fields, or machine single side or provide unmachined blank plates as well. All graphite plates could be machined as per your detailed design.

1. Ultra-high conductivity, helping efficient energy conversion
High-purity graphite ≥99.9%, conductivity up to 150 S/cm, ensuring zero loss in current transmission.
Low contact resistance: The surface is polished at the nano level, and the contact resistance with the gas diffusion layer is ≤10mΩ·cm², which improves the output power of the fuel cell.
2. Extremely strong corrosion resistance, adaptable to harsh environments
Excellent chemical stability: It can withstand strong acids (such as phosphoric acid), strong alkalis and high temperature and high humidity environments, without metal ion precipitation.
Anti-oxidation coating technology (optional): Silicon carbide (SiC) protective layer is added through CVD process, and the life span is increased by more than 3 times.
3. Lightweight design, reducing system energy consumption
Density as low as 1.8 g/cm3: 20% lighter than metal bipolar plates, suitable for weight-sensitive scenarios such as vehicle-mounted fuel cells.
Thin structure: The thickness can be customized to 0.8.0-2.0mm, optimizing stacking space and improving energy density.
4. Long life and low maintenance cost
Flexural strength ≥ 40 MPa: Excellent mechanical impact resistance, avoiding brittle fracture.
Creep resistance: Continuous operation for 10,000 hours at 80℃and 95% humidity, performance degradation <5%.
