| Bac2, a start-up
technology company based in the UK, has raised EUR 720,000 to fund its
ElectroPhen conductive polymer development project.
This material is used to manufacture
composite bipolar plates for use in polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM)
fuel cells.
The polymer offers natural conductivity
because conductive salts are generated during polymerization.
The bipolar plates are also tougher
than polymer bipolar plates, and can be cured at room temperature. The
material is also easily processed using the moulding process.
