TL;DR: The effect of Nafion loading in the catalyst layer of cathodes for polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEFCs) was investigated in this article, where an optimum loading was found to correspond to a minimum in the polarization resistance and in the oxygen reduction overpotential and a maximum in the electrochemical active area.

TL;DR: This level of conductivity exceeds that of any proton-conducting MOF reported to date and is equivalent to the conductivity of the most effective known electrolyte, Nafion.
Abstract: Facile postsynthetic oxidation of the thiol-laced UiO-66-type framework UiO-66(SH)2 enabled the generation of UiO-66(SO3H)2 with sulfonic acid groups covalently linked to the backbone of the system. The oxidized material exhibited a superprotonic conductivity of 8.4×10−2 S cm−1 at 80 °C and 90 % relative humidity, and long-term stability of the conductivity was observed. This level of conductivity exceeds that of any proton-conducting MOF reported to date and is equivalent to the conductivity of the most effective known electrolyte, Nafion.
