NOVELTY - Producing an electrically conductive, precursor laminate (506) composition for fuel cell flow field plate or bipolar plate (516) applications, involves feeding a thin metal sheet having a first surface and a second surface, into a consolidating zone; and feeding a first exfoliated graphite composite sheet comprises expanded or exfoliated graphite (322) and a binder or matrix material (3-60 wt.%) to bond the expanded or exfoliated graphite to form a cohered sheet, onto the first surface of the metal sheet to form a two-layer precursor laminate in the zone.    USE - For producing electrically conductive, precursor laminate composition for fuel cell flow field plate or bipolar plate applications (claimed).    ADVANTAGE - The method prepared laminate has high thickness-direction conductivity and excellent resistance to gas permeation. The method produced a laminate composition that can be easily molded or embossed into a flow field plate or bipolar plate.    DETAILED DESCRIPTION - Producing an electrically conductive, precursor laminate (506) composition for fuel cell flow field plate or bipolar plate (516) applications, involves feeding a thin metal sheet having a first surface and a second surface, into a consolidating zone; feeding a first exfoliated graphite composite sheet comprises expanded or exfoliated graphite (322) and a binder or matrix material (3-60 wt.%) to bond the expanded or exfoliated graphite to form a cohered sheet and further comprises particles of non-expandable graphite or carbon (3-60 wt.%), onto the first surface of the metal sheet to form a two-layer precursor laminate in the zone; feeding a second exfoliated graphite composite sheet comprises expanded or exfoliated graphite (322) and a binder or matrix material (3-60 wt.%) to bond the expanded or exfoliated graphite to form a cohered sheet, onto the second surface of the metal sheet to form a three-layer precursor laminate; collecting the precursor laminate composition on a collector or winding roller (422); and molding or embossing a portion of the precursor laminate composition into a bipolar plate or flow field plate having a flow field channel on at least one surface of the plate.
