| 20120020829 | HEAT-RESISTANT ALUMINUM ALLOY AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME - Disclosed is a heat-resistant aluminum alloy including aluminum and two types of alloy elements which are combined while forming a homogeneous solid solution reinforcing phase. The disclosed heat-resistant aluminum alloy includes the alloy elements that form a homogeneous solid solution and do not have a solvus line with respect to aluminum as a matrix metal and, therefore, the formed homogeneous solid solution reinforcing phase does not react with aluminum even at a temperature up to 300° C., thus not becoming coarse or undergoing phase decomposition. Consequently, the disclosed aluminum alloy may have remarkably enhanced heat resistance. | 01-26-2012 |
| 20110135812 | METAL SEPARATOR FOR FUEL CELL AND METHOD FOR TREATING SURFACE OF THE SAME - The present invention provides a metal separator for a fuel cell, which is surface-treated to have high electrical conductivity and electrochemical corrosion resistance, and a method for treating the surface of the same. The metal separator may include an amorphous carbon film formed on the surface of a separator substrate, the amorphous carbon film being carbonized by heat treatment to increase the proportion of sp | 06-09-2011 |
| 20100167141 | Apparatus and method for acceleratively activating fuel cell - Apparatuses and methods for accelerated activation of fuel cells are disclosed. The apparatuses include a fuel cell stack; an air supplying means coupled to a cathode catalyst side of the fuel cell stack through a mass flow controller and a humidifier; a hydrogen supplying means coupled to an anode catalyst side of the fuel cell stack through a mass flow controller and a humidifier; and a cable coupled to both ends of the fuel cell stack for short-circuiting the cathode and the anode. | 07-01-2010 |
