摘要
Cerium and manganese ions are very effective reversible scavengers of -OH in an operating PFSA-based PEM fuel cell. The use of these ions in very small quantities can reduce the fluoride release rate by up to three orders of magnitude relative to an unmitigated sample and thereby afford extremely durable membranes. A chemically rational mechanism that accounts for the remarkable effectiveness of these chemical mitigants is presented.
