This project focuses on enhancing proton exchange membrane fuel cells by developing a hydrophobic carbon nanofiber layer as a catalyst support. It aims to improve platinum utilization and stability, thereby increasing fuel cell performance while reducing costs associated with platinum usage.
Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) in combination with hydrogen are considered one of the best candidates to help to mitigate the climate change.
However, there are still some challenges to release this technology to the market.
One of the main costly issues for its commercialization is the amount of the platinum (Pt) that is used as catalyst, especially in the cathode where the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) takes place.
Even though progress has been made during the past years decrea…
