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. |
