Designing interfacial structures for selective electrocatalysis
Selectivity of electrocatalysis in fuel cells stresses on the tolerance of electrode catalysts to cross-over species. A typical polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) employs a Nafion-based membrane to separate the Pt-based cathode and anode. Nevertheless, the intrinsic porosity of Nafion …

Towards a Membrane Electrode Assembly for a Thermally Regenerative Fuel Cell
The thermally regenerative fuel cell (TRFC) concept that is analyzed is a polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC), powered by the electro-oxidation of H2 and the electro-reduction of propiophenone. The main products of this fuel cell should be 1-phenyl-1-propanol and electricity. The …

Electrocatalytic dioxygen reduction with copper complexes
… of systems, chiefly as the cathode reaction in a polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC). While fuel cells have been in use since in their modern form since the 1960s, they are still not widely employed. The main factor preventing fuel cell proliferation is the high overpotentials for the …

Lifetime Prediction and Durability of Elastomeric Seals for Fuel Cell Applications
Polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cell (FC) stacks require elastomeric gaskets for each cell to keep the reactant gases within their respective regions[1]. If any gasket degrades or fails, the reactant gases can leak or mix with each other directly during operation or standby, affecting the …
