Journal ArticleDOI
Ionic Conductivity of an Extruded Nafion 1100 EW Series of Membranes
TL;DR: In this paper, the proton conductivity of a series of extruded Nafion membranes was studied in 1 M H2SO4 at 298 K using a four-electrode, dc technique.
Journal ArticleDOI
Modeling and Simulation of the Degradation of Perfluorinated Ion-Exchange Membranes in PEM Fuel Cells
TL;DR: In this article, a polymer-electrolyte membrane fuel cell model that incorporates chemical degradation in perlfluorinated sulfonic acid membranes is developed, based on conservation principles and includes a detailed description of the transport phenomena.
Journal ArticleDOI
Recent trends and developments in polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell modelling
TL;DR: In this article, a review summarises recent activity in PEM fuel cell modelling, with a focus on detailed physical models, and considers its potential significance, highlighting the current use of modelling in the test and design cycles, and outlining future requirements.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electrochemical and microscopic characterisation of platinum-coated perfluorosulfonic acid (Nafion 117) materials

TL;DR: Platinum-coated Nafion 117 structures were characterised using electrochemical measurements of platinum surface area and a number of microscopy techniques as mentioned in this paper, and the morphology and composition of the platinum deposits were related to their preparation conditions in terms of platinum salt concentration, electrolyte flow and the surface roughness of Nafium 117.
Journal ArticleDOI
The electrochemistry of l-cystine and l-cysteine part 2 : Electrosynthesis of l-cysteine at solid electrodes
TL;DR: In this paper, the performance of several flow-through parallel plate cell designs is shown to be very dependent upon the electrolysis conditions and the role of current density and the rate of mass transport in the cells is discussed.
