Abstract
As an alternative clean energy technology, the proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) could be widely used in residential, transportation, and military applications. However, several factors currently limit fuel cell system commercialization: low stack performance, short lifetime, and high cost. Catalyst layer composition is a key component in determining both stack performance and lifetime. Therefore, catalyst layer composition optimization is highly significant for improving MEA stability and continuity, enhancing stack lifetime, and reducing the overall system cost. This chapter discusses the main factors in catalyst layer composition that determine MEA performance. © 2008 Springer-Verlag.
