Breakthrough for Durable and Efficient Fuel Cells
Researchers from Daegu Gyeongbuk Institute of Science and Technology created a technology that significantly increases the durability of alloy catalysts, a vital part of fuel cells. By adding nitrogen to the alloy structure, the team addressed the high cost and low durability of platinum catalysts, two significant barriers to commercializing Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFC) for environmentally friendly vehicles. The study was published in the Journal of the American Chemical Society.

In general, if you enjoy reading this kind of scientific news articles, I would also be keen to connect with fellow researchers based on common research interests in materials science, including the possibility to discuss about any potential interest in the Materials Square cloud-based online platform ( www.matsq.com ), designed for streamlining the execution of materials and molecular atomistic simulations!
