Abstract

Fuel cell electrodes are fabricated on electrode base substrates. The electrode substrates can be evenly and uniformly covered with electrocatalysts, which are supported on carbon nanomaterials, and ionomers by means of filtration and pressing. The electrodes can be used as anodes or cathodes for membrane fuel cells, such as DMFC and PEMFC.
