Abstract

Proton_exchange membrane fuel cells(PEMFC) using a perfluorosulfonic acid proton exchange membrane as an electrolyte can simplify water and electrolyte management.In this paper,the effects of thickness of PEM on the performance of PEMFC were studied.The Nafion_112 PEM and low platinum loading E_TEK electrode yielded very high power density,of the order of 0.95 W/cm 2.The energy_conversion efficiency,the degree of platinum utilization and stability for PEMFC using Nafion 112 and E_TEK electrode were also investigated.
