Low Pt loading for high-performance fuel cell electrodes enabled by hydrogen-bonding microporous polymer binders

Lowering the Pt loading while maintaining high fuel-cell performance is an important but difficult task. Here the authors report modified polymers with intrinsic microporosity as binder for preferential retention of phosphoric acid in the catalyst layer, which offers great opportunities to lower the...

description Lowering the Pt loading while maintaining high fuel-cell performance is an important but difficult task. Here the authors report modified polymers with intrinsic microporosity as binder for preferential retention of phosphoric acid in the catalyst layer, which offers great opportunities to lower the catalyst loading for high-temperature proton exchange membrane fuel cell.
