Summary

Introduction

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.
