The carbon electrodes for proton exchange membrane fuel cells have been modified by sputter deposition of poly(tetrafluroethylene) (PTFE). This technique produces fluorine containing functional groups on the carbon electrodes and thus forms a hydrophobic coating. The properties of the coated and unc
## Abstract A gas diffusion layer (GDL) with carbon prepared from paraffin wax was developed for the first time to impart hydrophobicity and porosity for fuel cell application. It is also intended to reduce the nonβfunctional binder content in the microporous layer and to achieve optimum performanc
