Download or read book Polymer Electrolyte Fuel Cell Degradation written by Matthew M. Mench and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For full market implementation of PEM fuel cells to become a reality, two main limiting technical issues must be overcome- cost and durability. This cutting-edge volume directly addresses the state-of-the-art advances in durability within every fuel cell stack component. [...] chapters on durability in the individual fuel cell components -- membranes, electrodes, diffusion media, and bipolar plates -- highlight specific degradation modes and mitigation strategies. The book also includes chapters which synthesize the component-related failure modes to examine experimental diagnostics, computational modeling, and laboratory protocol"--Back cover.
