Phosphoric acid-doped polybenzimidazole-membrane-based PEM fuel cells were tested in the temperature range of 120-200 degrees C, with ambient backpressure and 0% RH. AC impedance spectroscopy, surface cyclic voltammetry and fuel cell performance simulation were used to obtain the exchange current densities for the cathodic oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and anodic hydrogen oxidation reaction (HOR) on platinum-based catalysts at such high temperatures. The activation energies for ORR, HOR and membrane conductivity were also obtained separately. The results showed that temperature significantly affects the charger transfer and gas (O-2 and H-2) diffusion resistances. The effect of O-2 stoichiometry (STair) on fuel cell performance was also investigated. Increasing STair can effectively increase the 02 partial pressure in the feed air, leading to improvements in both the thermodynamics and the kinetics of the fuel cell reactions. In addition, it was observed that increasing STair could also improve the gas diffusion processes. (C) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
