“…Various electroanalytical methods used to study classical laboratory electrode systems have been adapted for studying PEMFC stacks [12,13]. The portfolio of electrochemical methods currently available for stacks includes current interrupt (internal cell resistance measurement) [14,15], voltammetry (real electrochemically active electrode area measurement, electrocatalyst chemistry assessment, determination of electronic shorting in MEAs, fuel crossover measurement) [16,17], stripping voltammetry (real electrochemically active electrode area measurement, electrocatalyst chemistry assessment) [18], potentiometry (as in voltammetry) [19][20][21], amperometry (fuel crossover measurement) [17,22], and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS, quantification of different sources of stack polarization under load, structural information about electrodes) [23,24]. These methods have been developed for hydrogen-fueled (H 2 -PEMFC) as well as methanol-fueled (DMFC) stacks [18,[25][26][27].…”
