Direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs) using Pt‐Ru electrocatalysts and perfluorosulfonic acid membranes provide high performances if operated above 100°C with optimized catalyst layers. A decal transfer method is used to apply thin‐film catalyst/ionomer composite layers Nation® membranes. Nation 112 membrane/electrode assembly operating on 5 atm oxygen at 130°C yields a current of 670 mA/cm2 0.5 V cell voltage. Peak power density 400 mW/cm2. The same 3 air 110°C 370 provides maximum 250
This paper describes methanol flux measurements across Nafion, 1100 equivalent weight membranes under conditions of a direct fuel cell but in which is completely electro‐oxidized on the opposite side an inert atmosphere at sufficiently high electrode potential. Both diffusion coefficient and concentration membrane were determined from measured transient limiting current density following potential step. Corrections for electro‐osmotic drag effects are developed found necessary even low MeOH...
This paper compares direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs) employing two types of Nafion® (E.I. DuPont de Nemours and Company) membranes different equivalent weight (EW). Methanol water uptakes in 1100 1200 EW Nafion were determined by weighing solution‐equilibrated membranes. Both the membrane about 70–74% those membrane. The crossover rate corresponding to that a DMFC at open circuit was measured using voltammetric method configuration under same cell operating conditions. After accounting for...
The performance of polyaniline‐based electrochemical capacitors was evaluated under various experimental conditions. capacitor consisted two platinized tantalum foils coated with polyaniline as the active material, a separator, and an appropriate aqueous electrolyte solution. coatings were formed galvanostafically from 0.1 M aniline +1.0 HCl With loading by deposition charge on each electrode solution for optimized capacitor, energy power densities (of polymer) achieved, respectively. Cyclic...
Direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs) using poly(perfluorosulfonic acid) membranes were used to determine the water electro-osmotic drag coefficients in these ionomeric membranes. In a DMFC fed with 1.0 M aqueous at anode and dry cathode, membrane can be fully equilibrated on both sides liquid sufficiently high current density. this special situation, flux across from cathode is driven by protonic exclusively. From measurements performed membranes, of all increase temperature. Compared hydrated...

A direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) employing a proton conducting membrane was used to determine the electro‐osmotic drag coefficient of water in ionomeric membrane. Water flux across such (operated with 1.0 M aqueous at anode and dry cathode) is driven by protonic exclusively sufficiently high current densities. This evidenced experimentally linear relationship between measured crossing Application DMFC for water‐drag measurements significantly simpler than approach described us before,...
The ionomer content in catalyst layers has a marked influence on direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) performance. In an anode which contains unsupported PtRu as the catalyst, recast may not always be necessary because protonic conductivity of hydrous RuOx, presence is inferred from X‐ray diffraction pattern, sufficient to allow effective utilization sites. To examine interpenetration and membrane material possible explanation for lack apparent need added ionomer, ultramicrotomed thin sections...
All-inorganic CsPbI3 perovskites have great potential in tandem cells combination with other photovoltaic devices. However, perovskite solar (PSCs) still face a huge challenge, resulting low power conversion efficiency (PCE) relative to organic-inorganic PSCs. In this work, we introduced tetrabutylammonium acetate (TBAAc) as buffer layer between the SnO2 electron-transport (ETL) and all-inorganic film interface for first time. TBAAc not only improved conductivity of ETL but also formed 1D...
