Surface modification on the stainless steel to reduce voltage losses due to the formation of passive layers by electroless Au plating has been demonstrated. The electroless Au plating and uncoated stainless steel bipolar plates were assembled to a direct methanol fuel cell and conduct performance testing. The methanol crossover rate of proton exchange membrane (PEM), the efficiency of direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) and the amount of methanol electro-oxidation of the bipolar electrode at cathode side are obtained by the transient current analysis.}, publisher = {Society for Social Management Systems}, title = {Computer-Aided Design And Manufacturing Of Bipolar Plates For DMFC}, volume = {6}, year = {2010} }
