The development of active and stable catalysts still represents a challenge to be overcome in the research field of low-temperature fuel cells
The best-performing catalysts in low-temperature fuel cells are based on highly-dispersed Pt nanoparticles [1]
This Special Issue (SI) includes 10 high-quality contributions related to recent works in catalysis for low-temperature fuel cells. It comprises four review papers covering aspects such as palladium-based catalysts, non-precious catalysts, the catalyst/support interaction, and the effects related to cell reversal
Summary
The development of active and stable catalysts still represents a challenge to be overcome in the research field of low-temperature fuel cells. Operation at low temperatures offers great advantages, such as quick start-up and longer stability, but demands the utilization of highly active catalysts to reduce the activation energy of the electrochemical reactions involved in the electrodes, and obtain practical performances and high efficiencies.
