## Abstract A direct borohydride fuel cell (DBFC) employing a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) hydrogel membrane and a nickelβbased composite anode is reported. Carbonβsupported platinum and sputtered gold have been employed as cathode catalysts. Oxygen, air and acidified hydrogen peroxide have been used as
This study reports the fabrication and performances of hybrid proton-conducting membranes by dispersing nanosized solid superacid inorganic fillers, TiO 2 -SO 4 2-(STiO 2 ), into chitosan (CS) matrix. Fourier transform infrared spectra demonstrate intermolecular interactions between STiO 2 and chito
