  • innovative production procedure for low cost pefc Electrodes and Electrode membrane structures
    International Journal of Hydrogen Energy, 1998
    Co-Authors: D Bevers, N Wagner, M Von Bradke
    Abstract:

    As production cost will be one of the main challenges for the commercialization of fuel cells, a new approach to Electrode production and Electrode-membrane-Electrode (EME) structure production for polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEFC) has been considered. Electrodes are produced by a modified rolling process that was formerly used for the production of Electrodes for alkaline fuel cells or batteries. This rolling process has been adapted to the specific demand of PEFC Electrodes. The Electrodes were analyzed via cyclic voltammetry (CV), impedance and effective exchange current density (the geometrical exchange current) measurements. The comparison of these Electrodes with commercially available E-Tek Electrodes shows the same power output. This paper gives an overview of the ongoing research on these Electrode production technologies.

  • proton conduction in pem fuel cell cathodes effects of Electrode thickness and ionomer equivalent weight
    Journal of The Electrochemical Society, 2010
    Co-Authors: Chunxin Ji, Daniel R Baker, Wenbin Gu, Jacob Jorne, Hubert A Gasteiger
    Abstract:

    The dependence of Electrode proton resistivity on Electrode thickness, Pt loading, ionomer loading, and ionomer equivalent weight (EW) in proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell cathodes was investigated using a Pt/Vulcan catalyst. For uniform Electrodes, the Electrode proton resistivity is independent of the Electrode thickness and Pt loading but depends on the ionomer loading and ionomer EW. There is a strong dependence on the ionomer EW when the ionomer/carbon weight (I/C) ratio is lower than 0.8. The Electrode proton resistivity strongly depends on relative humidity (RH) and the density of ―SO 3 H groups in the Electrode. The Electrode proton resistivity becomes nearly independent of ionomer EW in Electrodes when high I/C ratios are used. At low I/C ratios and low RH levels, Electrodes with 850 EW ionomer exhibit better performance than those with 1050 EW. On the contrary, 850 EW Electrodes give lower performance under overhumidified conditions due to Electrode flooding.

  • dependence of Electrode proton resistivity on Electrode thickness and ionomer equivalent weight in cathode catalyst layer in pem fuel cell
    Meeting Abstracts, 2008
    Co-Authors: Chunxin Ji, Daniel R Baker, Wenbin Gu, Jacob Jorne, Hubert A Gasteiger
    Abstract:

    developed to predict Electrode performance can be used in a wide range of Electrodes and Electrode thicknesses. Since the equivalent weight (EW) of the ionomer affects its proton conductivity, using ionomers with different EW and measuring their corresponding Electrode’s proton resistance can give us a better understanding of the impact of the ionomer bulk proton resistivity on the Electrode proton resistivity. While previous Electrodes were made of 1050 EW ionomer, the present work employed Electrodes made of an ionomer with lower EW. Lower Electrode proton resistivities are expected for the Electrodes made of low EW ionomers. H cath R ,

  • reverse curve arch shaped dry eeg Electrode for increased skin Electrode contact area on hairy scalps
    Electronics Letters, 2015
    Co-Authors: Jeong Su Lee, Chungmin Han, Jee-hoon Kim, Kwang Suk Park
    Abstract:

    Electroencephalography (EEG) is electrical brain activity that can be measured on the scalp with Ag/AgCl Electrodes and conductive gel. However, time-consuming preparation procedures, dehydration of the gel, and skin irritation are crucial drawbacks of using such Electrodes. Alternative approaches involving the use of spiky dry Electrodes have their own drawbacks such as limited skin–Electrode contact area, high skin–Electrode impedance, and pain. Reverse-curve-arch-shaped dry EEG Electrodes for use in increasing the skin–Electrode contact area on hairy scalps are presented. The proposed Electrode was fabricated from sterling silver using a three-dimensional printer. To increase the contact area between the skin and an Electrode, an Electrode was designed to have reverse-curve arches which were arranged in a row on the Electrode base. The curvature of the arches was designed to match the curvature of the scalp to maximise the contact area and disperse the pressing force. To validate the proposed Electrode design, comparison experiments for EEG and skin–Electrode contact impedance were conducted, and the proposed Electrode was found to perform better than a commercially available finger-type dry Electrode.
