Figure 2A. Schematic of the STR PEM fuel cell reactor. The exposed membrane area was ~1.5 cm 2, with gas volumes above the anode and cathode of ~0.2 cm 3. The MEA employed Etek electrodes and a Nafion ...

Both types of hydrogen systems require bipolar plates (BPPs), which include two key conversion components: the membrane electrode assembly (MEA), in a fuel cell system, and the catalyst coated ...

MEAs are known as the chips of fuel cells, which determine their performance and cost. The MEA accounts for about 65% of the total cost of fuel cell stacks, but large-scale production of MEAs had ...
