Summary: Highly active bimetallic catalysts for the electrochemical oxygen reduction reaction were successfully prepared by high-temperature pyrolysis, showing excellent performance comparable to commercial Pt/C. The catalysts' superior activity was attributed to high surface metal and nitrogen contents. In an anion exchange membrane fuel cell, the catalyst demonstrated a high peak power density.

Performance hysteresis phenomena of anion exchange membrane fuel cells using an Fe-N-C cathode catalyst and an in-house-developed polymer electrolyte

Kanji Otsuji et al.

Summary: Research focuses on water management challenges and improvements in cell performance for anion exchange membrane fuel cells (AEMFCs) using a non-PGM catalyst and an in-house-developed anion exchange ionomer. Results show that water plays a critical role in the cathode reaction and that the hysteresis effect is related to water supply to the cathode using the Fe-N-C catalyst. Managing water is essential for high-performance AEMFCs.

Anion exchange polyelectrolytes for membranes and ionomers

Nanjun Chen et al.

Summary: Anion exchange membrane fuel cells (AEMFCs) are considered a low-cost alternative to proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) for clean energy conversion, as they utilize non-platinum group metals as electrocatalysts under alkaline conditions. The development of high-performance anion-exchange polyelectrolytes (AEPs) has led to significant progress in power density and durability of AEMFCs, making them comparable to or even better than PEMFCs.

Effect of Pt and Ionomer Distribution on Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cell Performance and Durability

Aki Kobayashi et al.

Summary: Carbon black (CB) has been treated to increase surface area for use as a catalyst support, affecting ionomer impregnation and cell performance in polymer electrolyte fuel cells. Optimum ionomer content depends on nanopore volume, as excess ionomer can block nanopore entrances. High-surface-area CB can lead to decreased Pt particle size and prevent nanopore blocking, improving electrochemical surface area and suppressing Ostwald ripening and coarsening.
