Phenol type antioxidants, covalently attached to the polymer trunk to prevent leaching out, provide effective stabilization of the electrolyte membrane against chemical degradation in the fuel cell. Implications of the use of phenolic compounds as antioxidants in non-perfluorinated fuel cell membranes are discussed.
