A front end module for an electric vehicle is provided. The front end module includes a carrier that is disposed inside a bumper cover having a lower grille. The carrier includes a receiving opening within which a heat exchanger is disposed. In addition, an active air flap is disposed below the carrier and adjacent to the lower grille, the active air flap having a plurality of pivotable flaps. Further, the front end module includes an air guard that is disposed above the active air flap and covers a front surface of the heat exchanger disposed within the receiving opening of the carrier.

Front end module for electric vehicle

The present invention provides a composite separator for a polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) and a method for manufacturing the same. The inventive method involves allowing graphite foil layers to be brought into direct contact with each other when graphite foils are stacked on both sides of a carbon fiber reinforced composite material prepreg, thereby improving electrical conductivity in the thickness direction of the separator.

Composite separator for polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell and method for manufacturing the same

The present invention provides a method for manufacturing a composite separator for a fuel cell, which can reduce the electrical contact resistance by performing an additional post-treatment to remove residual resin remaining on the surface of the composite separator by plasma etching. In certain preferred embodiments, the present invention provides a method for manufacturing a composite separator for a fuel cell, in which a liquid phase resin for gasket is applied to the surface of the composite separator along a predetermined gasket pattern, or a semi-cured resin for gasket in the form of a film with a predetermined gasket pattern is stacked on the surface of the composite separator, and then plasma etching is performed to remove the residual resin and, at the same time, cure the resin for gasket, thus reducing the overall processing time to improve the productivity and preventing a composite material of the separator from being damaged.
