Development of a hydrophobic coating for the porous gas diffusion layer in a PEM-based electrochemical hydrogen pump to mitigate anode flooding

Anode flooding is one of the critical issues in developing a proton exchange membrane (PEM)-based electrochemical hydrogen pump. Improving the hydrophobicity of the gas diffusion layer (GDL) has been studied as an approach to mitigating anode flooding in electrochemical pumps. A mixture of Nafion™ a...
