Durable and Water Manageable Ordered Mesoporous Supports for Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cells

The enhancement of durability is one of the challenges to be resolved for the commercialization of polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEFCs). One of the major reasons for the degradation of cell performance is an improper management of water produced by oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) at the cathode. In this study, we focus on durable and water manageable electrocatalyst supports through the modification of the pore structures.
