Contact plate for an electrochemical cell, process and an injection mold for producing the contact plate and contact plate assembly

A contact plate for electrochemical cells, formed of a graphite-thermoplastic composite with a graphite percentage of at least 80% by mass, containing functional elements necessary for the transport of reaction media and creating electrical contact with electrodes, has a fluid mechanical construction such that it can be produced in an injection molding process without secondary working. The production of edge areas of non-conductive material surrounding the contact plate, and seals, can be integrated into the injection molding process through the use of multi-component technology so that the entire plate including the edge area and seals can be produced in one injection mold.
