Important findings on oxygen permeability and catalyst activity improvement were obtained by Mr. Takeshi Hirai, a PhD student and a corporate employee of AGC Inc, and his co-researchers, partially supported by funds for projects from the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization (NEDO). This was achieved by applying a newly developed high oxygen permeability ionomer, whose primary structure is entirely composed of cyclic monomers, to the catalyst layer in polymer electrolyte fuel cells. This research is expected to dramatically improve fuel cell performance under demanding conditions such as high load and low humidity.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"726\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/fc-nano.yamanashi.ac.jp\/english\/wp-nano_e\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/aaemcq.2024.7.issue-9.xlargecover-2-726x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-712\" style=\"width:633px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fc-nano.yamanashi.ac.jp\/english\/wp-nano_e\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/aaemcq.2024.7.issue-9.xlargecover-2-726x1024.png 726w, https:\/\/fc-nano.yamanashi.ac.jp\/english\/wp-nano_e\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/aaemcq.2024.7.issue-9.xlargecover-2-425x600.png 425w, https:\/\/fc-nano.yamanashi.ac.jp\/english\/wp-nano_e\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/aaemcq.2024.7.issue-9.xlargecover-2-768x1083.png 768w, https:\/\/fc-nano.yamanashi.ac.jp\/english\/wp-nano_e\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/aaemcq.2024.7.issue-9.xlargecover-2-1089x1536.png 1089w, https:\/\/fc-nano.yamanashi.ac.jp\/english\/wp-nano_e\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/aaemcq.2024.7.issue-9.xlargecover-2-1452x2048.png 1452w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 726px) 100vw, 726px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1021\/acsaem.4c00177\">doi.org\/10.1021\/acsaem.4c00177<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u3000A paper by Prof. Makoto Uchida and his team at the Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Nanomaterials Center has been published in the academic journal \u2018ACS Applied Energy Materials\u2019 issued by the American Chemical Society.
