Air oxidation of carbon supports boosts the low-humidity fuel cell performance

Abstract

We introduce a straightforward, yet effective strategy to combat the performance decline of proton-exchange membrane fuel cells in low-humidity environments. Our method centers on air-oxidizing carbon supports, significantly improving proton and oxygen transport within the cathode catalyst layer.
