Decoupling the Contributions of Different Instability Mechanisms to the PEMFC Performance Decay of Non-noble Metal O2-Reduction Catalysts

Secil Unsal et al.

Summary: Non-noble metal catalysts (NNMCs) have the potential to replace expensive Pt-based materials in proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs), but their poor durability hinders their commercial implementation. The degradation mechanisms include operative demetallation, electro-oxidation of the carbonaceous matrix, and chemical degradation caused by H2O2 radicals. However, the relative contributions of these mechanisms to overall performance loss are not well understood. In this study, degradation protocols were used to determine that H2O2-related instability is dependent on the ORR charge, while electro-oxidation of the carbon matrix at high potentials is more detrimental to NNMCs' activity than demetallation at low potentials.
