Low-Cost and Durable Bipolar Plates for Proton Exchange Membrane Electrolyzers
Cost reduction and high efficiency are the mayor challenges for sustainable H2 production via proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolysis. Titanium-based components such as bipolar plates (BPP) have the largest contribution to the capital cost. This work proposes the use of stainless steel BPPs coated with Nb and Ti by magnetron sputtering physical vapor deposition (PVD) and vacuum plasma spray...
متن کاملEffect of Sputtered Film of Platinum on Low Platinum Loading Electrodes on Electrode Kinetics of Oxygen Reduction in Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells
-Localization of Pt electrocatalyst by sputter deposition of a thin film (5OOA) on the front surface of a fuel cell electrode containing a supported electrocatalyst (20% Pt/C, 0.4mgcm-* loading) has been known to exhibit higher fuel cell performance as compared to that on the electrode without the sputtered flm. This study compares the electrode kinetic parameters, electrochemically active surf...
متن کاملStimulated-healing of Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell Catalyst
Platinum nanoparticles, which are used as catalysts in Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFC), tend to degrade after long-term operation. We discriminate the following mechanisms of the degradation: poisoning, migration and coalescence, dissolution, and electrochemical Ostwald ripening. There are two ways to tackle this problem. The first option involves formulation of durable catalyst, wh...

متن کاملStudies on the SPEEK membrane with low degree of sulfonation as a stable proton exchange membrane for fuel cell applications
Sulfonated poly (ether ether ketone) (SPEEK) with a low degree of sulfonation (DS = 40%) was prepared for proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC). Poly (ether ether ketone) (PEEK) was sulfonated in concentrated H2SO4 under N2 atmosphere and characterized by the hydrogen nuclear magnetic resonance (H-NMR) technique. After preparation of the SPEEK polymer, the obtained polymer was dissolved i...
