✦ Synopsis

A literature review of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) analysis of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) is presented. Emphasis is placed on the papers that analyse the impedance response of the cathode and anode half-cells of the PEMFCs based on a continuum-mechanics approach. The other type of analysis, which is based on the equivalent-circuits approach, is addressed for comparison. The relative advantages and disadvantages of the two approaches are discussed. Papers dealing with continuum-mechanics-based EIS modelling of general electrochemical systems are briefly reviewed.

Proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) performance degrades when carbon monoxide (CO) is present in the fuel gas; this is referred to as CO poisoning. This paper investigates CO poisoning of PEMFCs by reviewing work on the electrochemistry of CO and hydrogen, the experimental performance of PEMF

## Abstract Degradation processes of both sulfonated polyimide (sPI) and sulfonated polyetheretherketone (sPEEK) membranes were studied in‐situ in fuel cells. __Ex‐situ__ ageing protocols were developed for both polymers and model compounds. On the one hand sulfonated polyimides are shown to be mai

Pinholes in the membrane electrode assembly (MEA) of a fuel cell can lead to premature fuel cell failure. The main causes for pinhole formation are contaminant particles, non-uniform stress distribution, and membrane corrosion. In this paper fuel cell performance is compared before and after piercin
