The Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project will develop a polymer alloy material and sealing process using high-speed near-infrared radiation welding, to form a waterproof bond in the assembly of proton exchange membrane and direct methanol fuel cells. A key objective of the proposed work is to screen candidate polymers to formulate alloy seals with maximum sealing bonding strength and optimum resistance to chemical and mechanical degradation. . The proposed sealing material and welding process will provide a path for new high efficiency fuel cell manufacturing technology. The proposed technology will provide the flexibility to weld alloy seals at needed locations to produce a unitized fuel cell structure; thereby, reducing the number of individual components and assembly steps, increasing quality and reducing costs. Additionally, the infrared welding process will lend itself to high speed automated manufacturing.

小型企业创新研究（SBIR）I期项目将使用高速近红外辐射焊接开发聚合物合金材料和密封过程，以在质子交换膜和直接甲醇燃料电池组装中形成防水键。 拟议工作的一个关键目的是筛选候选聚合物，以最大的密封键强度和对化学和机械降解的最佳电阻制定合金密封剂。 。 提出的密封材料和焊接过程将为新的高效率燃料电池制造技术提供一条途径。所提出的技术将为所需位置的焊接合金密封件提供灵活性，以生成一个统一的燃料电池结构。从而减少单个组件和组装步骤的数量，从而提高质量并降低成本。 此外，红外焊接工艺将使自动化自动化制造业。
