Performance of Microfabricated Zeolite Micromembrane in PEMFC

摘要

The results are encouraging for it demonstrates for the first time the use zeolite micromembrane as proton-exchange membrane for hydrogen PEMFC and direct methanol fuel cell. Further membrane improvements must aim to decrease the diffusion pathway (i.e., thinner membrane and b-oriented HZSM-5), and prevent methanol access to the zeolite pores (e.g., pore mouth modification by silylation).
