Bipolar plates of Hydrogen-Oxygen Fuel Cell is the core of the parts,and the bipolar plates that constitutes about 70%of the stack weight and 60%of the stack cost become the main obstacle of the commercialization of fuel cell.In this paper,aim for the trend of light weight fuel cells,the view that metallic bipolar plates will become the main direction is proposed and the staple materials of the bipolar plates are introduced.The forming technologies of metallic bipolar plates in the last years are reviewed and their relative merits are presented.In the end the future development direction of electrochemical corrosion forming process is put forward.
