Abstract: A fuel cell bipolar plate includes first and second plates with ribs defining anode and cathode flow channels The plate are nested so as to define a plurality of center flow channels. First and second edge areas are formed at ends of the plates. A plurality of first internal fuel manifolds is formed in the first edge area and is in fluid communication with the center flow channels. A plurality of second internal fuel manifolds is formed in the first edge area and is in fluid communication with the anode flow channels. A turnaround plenum is formed in the second edge area and is in fluid communication with the center flow channels and the anode flow channels.

Abstract: An aqueous binder for making an electrode is provided. The aqueous binder includes water, a polymeric alcohol, a non-polymeric alcohol, a water-soluble resin, a drying moderator, and optionally an anti-foaming agent. The aqueous binder typically includes mostly water such that minimal toxic substances are evolved when the aqueous binder is used to produce electrodes. Electrodes and fuel cells assembled using the aqueous binder are also described.
