Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2022171844A1] The invention relates to a method of coating bipolar plates (1). It is characterized by at least the following method steps: – applying an epoxy resin-carbon mixture (2) at least to regions of at least one side (S) that is to be coated of a bipolar plate (1); – placing a die (3) onto the side (S) coated with epoxy resin-carbon mixture (2) of the bipolar plate (1) and fixing the die (3) relative to the bipolar plate with a fixed distance (x) between bipolar plate (1) and die (3); – curing the epoxy resin-carbon mixture (2) and removing the die (3); – roughening at least regions of the cured epoxy resin-carbon mixture coating (4); – hydrophilizing at least the roughened regions (4.1) of the epoxy resin-carbon mixture coating (4) by exposing at least the roughened regions (4.1) to a low-pressure plasma.
