To achieve high temperature operation of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC),
preferably under ambient pressure, acid–base polymer membranes represent an effective …

The development of high-temperature PEM fuel cells (working at 150–200° C) is pursued
worldwide in order to solve some of the problems of current cells based on Nafion®(CO …

The direct-methanol fuel cell (DMFC), a type of polymer-electrolyte membrane fuel cell, has
lately received much attention because of its potential applicability as a good alternative …

In the present work, three kinds of sulfonated poly (arylene ether ketones)(SPAEKs) with
different structures are introduced into Nafion as blending modifiers to enhance the …

Currently, enhancing the proton conductivity is one challenge for chitosan (CS, an industrial
waste around the world) membrane to work as proton exchange membrane for direct …

In this work we propose the use of the ionic liquid 1-H-3-methylimidazolium bis (
