“…For example, electrolyzers with GDEs and MEAs employ PTL to ensure the electrical connection between a current collector and catalyst layers, water supply and gas product removal/separation. Furthermore, the crossover of gaseous products (e.g., O 2 and H 2 for water electrolyzers) and reactants (e.g., CO 2 for CO 2 electrolyzers) across a membrane 172,173 is a practical issue that leads to efficiency, separation and safety problems in electrolyzers. Thus, these challenges present numerous opportunities for researchers.…”
