“…Although the polytetrafluoroethylene backbone of Nafion is chemically inert, the carboxyl groups at the end of the backbone, the ether and C–S bonds on the side chains, and the tertiary carbon are subject to chemical degradation by free radicals, for example, hydrogen ( · H), hydroxyl ( · OH), and peroxyl ( · OOH) radicals. , Therefore, during the operation in PEMFC, the PFSA membrane would suffer from the decrease in proton conductivity, the thickness thinning, and the formation of cracks and pinholes, thus resulting in the fuel cell failure after long-term exposure to free radicals. Therefore, enhancing the antioxidant stability of Nafion-based membranes can effectively improve the durability of PEMFC. ,, …”
