Abstract: | In a fuel cell almost 80% efficiency loss arises due to the cathode, consequently the cathode requires the largest amount of precious metal catalyst. Here we show a precious-metal-free cathode for a proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) containing only carbon nanoparticles as catalyst and a freely diffusing molecule as electron acceptor. Factors controlling the true rate of electrochemical reactions are amplified just with carbon nanoparticles leading to a carbon corrosion free PEMFC delivering 154 mW/cm2 at 358 mA/cm2 without any precious metals |
