Development of moisture independent proton-conducting polymer membrane: work without moisture at low temperatures up to -40C

The abolition of the humidification system and air cooling system

Utilization of nanostructured platinum catalyst PtC in highly dispersed oxide and oxide-carbon carrier lead to: lower platinum usage for cathodes (down to 300 mcg/cm2) and anodes (down to 100 mcg/cm2)

High tolerance to CO, lower hydrogen fuel purity is needed (50 ppm CO)
