What is The study on dynamic response performance of PEMFC with RuO2•xH2O/CNTs and Pt/C composite electrode about?

Dynamic response performance of Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) fuel cells affects its durability and reliability significantly. In this study, in order to promote the PEM fuel cell dynamic response performance, RuO 2 xH 2 O/CNTs was prepared by sol-gel method and then sprayed onto the Pt/C electrode surface to form the cathode. The RuO 2 xH 2 O/CNTs prepared was characterized by Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), which shows the average particle size of RuO 2 xH 2 O is 3 nm and particulates are well distributed. Performance of single cells with and without RuO 2 xH 2 O/CNTs at the cathode under various operating conditions such as different gases pressure, air stoichiometry and relative humidity was studied using cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectra (EIS) and polarization curve techniques. When the fuel cell modified with RuO 2 xH 2 O/CNTs was operated at lower pressure and higher air stoichiomotery, a faster and more stable dynamic response could be found. It was also found that the humidity of cathode inlet gas had a significant effect on fuel cell performance. Adding 0.1 mg/cm 2 RuO 2 xH 2 O/CNTs (RuO 2 xH 2 O 11%) composite material not only slightly incre
