Abstract:

High temperature proton exchange membrane fuel cells (HT-PEMFCs) have become one of the most important research directions in the energy field because of their good catalyst CO tolerance, high energy conversion rate, and simple hydrothermal management. High temperature proton exchange membranes (HTPEMs) are the most critical component. In this paper, we reviewed current research progress of HTPEM based on proton carriers at high temperature, including water, phosphoric acid and imidazole molecules. It appears that HTPEMs based on phosphoric acid doping perform the best. There are also a few issues that need to be addressed. Future directions concerning the development of HTPEMs were also outlined.
