Corrosion resistant, electrically and thermally conductive coating for multiple applications

摘要

Embodiments of an electrically conductive fluid distribution plate are provided, wherein the electrically conductive fluid distribution plate comprises a plate body defining a set of fluid flow channels configured to distribute flow of a fluid across at least one side of said plate, and a coating adhered to the plate in an area of the plate including the fluid flow channels defined by the plate body. The coating comprises expanded graphite comprising less than about 0.01% by weight of impurities. The coating also comprises less than about 10% by weight expanded graphite plus carbon black, and about 70% to about 95% by wt. binder, wherein the binder is comprised of a polymeric resin.
