CA 2489678

Methods are provided for manufacturing bipolar graphite articles. First and second components (112 and 114) are formed from flexible graphite material. The first component (112) may have a protrusion (122) formed thereon, and the second component (114) may have a recess (128) formed therein which is complementary to the protrusion (122) of the first component (112). The first and second components (112 and 114) are assembled so that the protrusion (122) of the first component (112) is received in the recess (128) of the second component (114). Preferably, the components are made from uncured resin impregnated graphite material. The assembled components are then pressed together and heated to cure the resin so as to bond the components together. Alternatively the second component, or both the components, may have flat surfaces which engage the other component.

L'invention concerne des procédés de fabrication d'articles en graphite bipolaire. Des premiers et seconds composants (112, 114) sont formés à partir d'une matière en graphite flexible. Le premier composant (112) peut présenter une protubérance (122) formée sur celui-ci, et le second composant (114) peut présenter un renfoncement (128) ménagé dans celui-ci, ce dernier étant complémentaire de la protubérance (122) du premier composant (112). Le premier et le second composant (112, 114) sont assemblés de manière à ce que la protubérance (122) du premier composant (112) est reçue dans le renfoncement (128) du second composant (114). De préférence, les composants sont fabriqués à partir d'une résine non durcie imprégnée de matière en graphite. Les composants assemblés sont alors pressés ensemble et chauffés pour durcir la résine, de façon à lier les composants les uns avec les autres. En variante, le second composant ou les composants peuvent présenter des surfaces planes qui s'enclenchent avec l'autre composant.
