Advance of high-temperature proton exchange membrane fuel cell

Temperature is one of the important operating conditions of PEMFC.According to research,the performance of PEMFC increases as the operating temperature increases.However,because of the limit of the material of membrane,catalyst and so on,the present PEMFC widely used operates at low temperature(below 80 ℃).But HT-PEMFC has been studied for a long time by some institutes.The advantages and the present research of HT-PEMFC were introduced in the article and the future developing trends were summarized.
