The role of catalyst stability on the adverse effects of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) formation rates in a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) is investigated for Pt, Pt binary (PtX, X = Co, Ru, Rh, V, Ni) and ternary (PtCoX, X = Ir, Rh)…
In this paper, we discuss critical aspects of the mechanisms and features of polymer proton exchange membrane (PEM) degradation in low-temperature H2/O2 fuel cell. In this paper, we focused on chemical mechanism of OH radical generation and…
Zare and co-workers have recently claimed that hydrogen peroxide is spontaneously generated on the air-water interface of sprayed microdroplets, i.e., that H2O2 forms without an external energy source or co-reactant or catalyst.…
The electrochemical performances of the {\alpha}-MnO2/Vulcan XC-72 and {\delta}-MnO2/Vulcan XC-72 nanostructures in hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) electrosynthesis were compared herein. Both materials were synthesized by a simple hydrothermal…
The kinetics of the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) on the practical air cathode in a Lithium air cell, which is conventionally composed of porous carbon with or without catalysts supported on it, was investigated. The mechanism and…
The influence of water and radicals on SOAs produced by {\beta}-pinene ozonolysis was investigated at 298 and 288 K using a laminar flow reactor. A volatility tandem differential mobility analyzer (VTDMA) was used to measure the evaporation…
A proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) for low power and portable applications is studied with thermal neutron radiography. The PEMFC operates under full passive conditions, with an air-breathing cathode and a dead-end anode supplied…
Fluid, heat and species transport and oxygen reduction in the cathode of a PEM fuel cell are simulated using multi relaxation lattice Boltzmann method. Heat generation due to oxygen reduction and its effects on transport and reaction are…
The hydrogen oxidation reaction (HOR) and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) play an important role in hydrogen based energy conversion. Recently, the frustrating performance in alkaline media raised debates on the relevant mechanism,…
Five parameters of a model of a polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell cathode (the porosity of the gas diffusion layer, the porosity of the catalyst layer, the exchange current density of the oxygen reduction reaction, the effective ionic…
The reactions of cold H atoms with solid O2 molecules were investigated at 10 K. The formation of H2O2 and H2O has been confirmed by in-situ infrared spectroscopy. We found that the reaction proceeds very efficiently and obtained the…
Effective water management is essential for the optimal performance of PEM fuel cells. We have developed an impedance model for liquid water transport through the membrane and coupled it with the two-phase model for cathode side impedance.…
A PEM fuel cell was specially constructed to determine kinetics under conditions of well-defined gas phase composition and cell temperature. Steady state multiplicity was discovered in the autohumidification PEM fuel cell, resulting from a…
Recent reports on the formation of hydrogen peroxide (H$_2$O$_2$) in water microdroplets produced via pneumatic spraying or capillary condensation have garnered significant attention. How covalent bonds in water could break under such…
Hydrogen transport in the anode of a proton-exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) has been studied with a modulation technique relating the hydrogen flow-rate $(\tilde{Q}_{H2})$ and the faradaic current $(\tilde{I})$, called…
Accelerating the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is a main subject of electrocatalysis research.A critical step of ORR is the formation of the hydroperoxyl functional group (OOH*) intermediate. In this study, we investigate the influence of…
Despite the mounting evidence proving that the air-water interface or the microdroplet geometry has nothing to do with the spontaneous formation of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), the myth persists. Three recent studies by George and co-workers…
In order to improve the understanding of the low temperature combustion of ethanol, high-level ab initio calculations were performed for elementary reactions involving hydroxyethylperoxy radicals. These radicals come from the addition of…
Electronic structure calculations are carried out to estimate the heats of formation of rare-earth orthophosphates from their oxides. The calculated heats of formation are systematically about 40 kJ/mol less exothermic than the measured…
The extent of irreversible deactivation of Pt towards hydrogen oxidation reaction (HOR) due to sulfur adsorption and subsequent electrochemical oxidation is quantified in a functional PEM fuel cell. At 70 {\deg}C, sequential hydrogen…
