摘要：
In this study, the mesoporous silica aerogel supported Pt nanoparticle (SAP) was synthesized by the simple microwave-assisted method within 90 s and characterized by WXRD and BET measurements. SAP was then used as a filler to prepare the self-humidifying Nafion (R)-based composite membrane (N/SAP). The dispersion of the catalyst in N/SAP as well as the water uptake and proton conductivity of N/SAP were investigated. Compared to that of the recast Nafion (R) membrane (RN), the water uptake and the proton conductivity of N/SAP was improved for about 38% and 109%, respectively. In addition, the power density of the PEMFC single cell fabricated with N/SAP at 50 degrees C was 1104 mW cm(-2) and 913 mW cm(-2) measured under the humidified condition and dry condition, respectively, which was approximately 91% and 5.5 times higher than that with RN membrane, respectively.
