Zusammenfassung:A method of manufacturing a hydrogen fuel cell hose and component parts is disclosed herein, including blending a formaldehyde-based, semi-crystalline engineering thermoplastic with graphene, wherein the graphene has a thickness of less than about 3.2 nm, a particle size of between about 50 nm and about 10 μm, and contains greater than about 95% carbon, exfoliating the graphene into plates, wherein the graphene plates having substantially no carboxylic acid, alcohols, ketones, aldehydes, or hydroxyl groups on the graphene plate surface or graphene plate edges, and aligning the graphene plates into perpendicular alignment, such that the graphene plates provide a barrier to migration of oxygen, nitrogen, moisture, or water vapor molecules.
