Abstract
The bipolar plate is one of the core components of the fuel cell. The connection of the bipolar plate and the deformation after connection are important factors affecting the quality of the bipolar plate. In order to improve the performance and service life of the fuel cell, it is necessary to enhance the corrosion resistance of the connection and reduce the deformation of the bipolar plate after connection.
