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

The effect of chloride as an air impurity and as a catalyst contaminant on the performance and durability of polybenzimidazole (PBI)-based high temperature proton exchange membrane fuel cell (HT-PEMFC) was studied. The ion chromatographic analysis reveals the existence of chloride contaminations in
## Abstract This study focuses on the performances of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) at 80 and 90โยฐC with feeds of varying degrees of humidification. The results show that ohmic resistance of the solid electrolyte decreases as the current density is raised because of the back diffusio
This study synthesized platinum (Pt) nanoparticles supported on carbon nanotubes (CNTs) using a microwave-assisted polyol method. The oxidation treatment of CNTs introduced primarily eOH and eCOOH groups to the CNTs, thereby enhancing the reduction of Pt ionic species, resulting in smaller Pt partic
We experimentally studied a high temperature proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell to investigate the effects of CO poisoning at different temperatures. The effects of temperature, for various percentages of CO mixed with anode hydrogen stream, on the current-voltage characteristics of the fuel c
