關注

采用聚乙烯為主鏈，側鏈為嵌段型聚四氟苯乙烯基膦酸和聚五氟苯乙烯，全氟磺酸聚合物也參與到電極中（網上僅有預印本全文，無正式版本全文，不確定電極聚合物之間的關系），其中全氟磺酸的質子被轉移到膦酸，以增強燃料電池電極的無水質子傳導能力。

常規磷酸摻雜PBI等物質因為水的生成造成磷酸流失，耐久性不良。

膦酸十年前的質子電導還很差，未引人關注。該文章有了突破，但冷啟動到高溫段有高內阻過程，膦酸的存在會讓不同狀態的水影響冷啟動的處理，催化劑載量過高。

Protonated phosphonic acid electrodes for high power heavy－duty vehicle fuel cells

Abstract

State－of－the－art automotive fuel cells that operate at about 80?°C require large radiators and air intakes to avoid overheating． High－temperature fuel cells that operate above 100?°C under anhydrous conditions provide an ideal solution for heat rejection in heavy－duty vehicle applications． Here we report protonated phosphonic acid electrodes that remarkably improve the performance of high－temperature polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells． The protonated phosphonic acids comprise tetrafluorostyrene－phosphonic acid and perfluorosulfonic acid polymers， where a perfluorosulfonic acid proton is transferred to the phosphonic acid to enhance the anhydrous proton conduction of fuel cell electrodes． By using this material in fuel cell electrodes， we obtained a fuel cell exhibiting a rated power density of 780?mW?cm–2 at 160?°C， with minimal degradation during 2，500?h of operation and 700 thermal cycles from 40 to 160?°C under load．
