Nano-CAT aims to develop innovative catalysts for proton exchange membrane fuel cells by reducing platinum usage and exploring platinum-free alternatives. The project focuses on enhancing catalyst durability and performance through new support materials and designs, targeting automotive applications.
Many efforts have been put on the reduction of the Pt loading but nowadays a threshold seems to be obtained.
Because the kinetics of the Hydrogen Oxidation Reaction is very fast on Pt, it is possible to use MEA with a Pt loading as low as 35 µgPt/cm-2 without any effect on the voltage loss when such an anode is used in front of a well working cathode.
But, the Oxygen Reduction Reaction kinetics is not so fast which is the limiting step concerning the electrochemical processes in a PEMFC.
