Upon increasing the salt concentration towards superconcentration the onset of the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) shifts more significantly than the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) does. The OER shift has been explained by the accumulation of hydrophobic anions blocking water access to the electrode surface, hence by double layer theory. Here we demonstrate that the processes during oxidation are much more complex, involving OER, carbon and salt decomposition by OER intermediates, and salt precipitation upon local oversaturation. The positive shift in the onset potential of oxidation currents was elucidated by combining several advanced analysis techniques: rotating ring-disk electrode voltammetry, online electrochemical mass spectrometry, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, using both dilute and superconcentrated electrolytes. The results demonstrate the importance of reactive OER intermediates and surface films for electrolyte and electrode stability and motivate further studies of the nature of the electrode.","lang":"eng"}],"volume":168,"publication":"Journal of The Electrochemical Society","oa_version":"None","month":"05","article_number":"050550","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"keyword":["Renewable Energy","Sustainability and the Environment","Electrochemistry","Materials Chemistry","Electronic","Optical and Magnetic Materials","Surfaces","Coatings and Films","Condensed Matter Physics"],"date_published":"2021-05-01T00:00:00Z","type":"journal_article","publication_identifier":{"eissn":["1945-7111"],"issn":["0013-4651"]},"status":"public","user_id":"c635000d-4b10-11ee-a964-aac5a93f6ac1"},{"publisher":"The Electrochemical Society","article_type":"original","quality_controlled":"1","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"publication_status":"published","oa_version":"None","article_processing_charge":"No","date_created":"2020-01-15T12:21:24Z","month":"03","title":"Measuring the current distribution with sub-millimeter resolution in PEFCs: II.

This method is extended to the determination of local membrane resistance with the same spatial resolution in the present paper. The combined measurement of current and resistance allows for investigating the interaction of mass- and charge-transport processes, which determine the local rate distribution across the domain of channels and ribs. Therewith, the influence of relevant operating parameters such as reactant composition, dew points, and cell compression on local current generation is investigated. The results show that the distribution of water and oxidant across the channel and rib are the main reasons for significant current gradients on a scale smaller than a millimeter. Humidity variation mainly affects the membrane resistance under the channel, while reactant concentration predominantly influences current generation under the rib-covered cell area.","lang":"eng"}],"date_updated":"2021-01-12T08:13:01Z","citation":{"chicago":"Reum, Mathias, Stefan Alexander Freunberger, Alexander Wokaun, and Felix N.

A specialized two-cell stack with advanced localized diagnostics was developed and used to analyze the mechanism and effect of cell-to-cell coupling as a result of operationally relevant variations in reactant feed flow. Contributions to overall and local voltage changes with respect to uniformly operated cells are scrutinized. Unequal operation of the cells causes in-plane current in the bipolar plate to redistribute current and result in inhomogeneous polarization. Both increasing and decreasing polarization along the air-flow path reduces cell power as compared to isopotential operation. A two-dimensional model based on a commercial computational fluid dynamics code is used to back and extend the experimental results to more general cases. Furthermore, the experimental setup presented allowed for the first time to perform simultaneous localized electrochemical impedance spectroscopy beyond the single-cell level. The mechanism of mutual cell interaction on local and integral spectra is revealed.

It is shown that the amplitude of the oxygen concentration oscillation created as a consequence of superimposed ac current at the air electrode is not zero at the channel/GDL interface but extends into the gas channels, at least below modulation frequencies of fmod=10 Hz . By this, sinusoidal oxygen-concentration oscillations within the cathode gas channels are excited locally along the flow field. Due to the forced air convection in the cathode flow-field channels, a coupling via the gas phase occurs downstream of the flow field. The coupling strongly affects the local and by this the overall impedance response of the cell and evokes the formation of a low-frequency arc in H2/air-PEFC impedance spectra.

Hence, the current density is obtained from the solution of Laplace's equation with the potentials at current collector and reaction layer as boundary conditions. Using ohmic drop for calculating the local current, detailed knowledge of all resistances involved is of prime importance. In particular, the contact resistance between the gas diffusion layer (GDL) and flow field rib, as well as GDL bulk conductivity, are strongly dependent on clamping pressure. They represent a substantial amount of the total ohmic drop and therefore require careful consideration. The detailed experimental setup as well as the concise procedure for quantitative data evaluation is described.

The model describes a two-dimensional slice through the cell along the channels and through the entire cell sandwich including the coolant channels and the bipolar plate. Arbitrary flow arrangements of fuel, oxidant, and coolant stream directions can be described. Due to the serious impact of temperature on all processes in the PEFC, both the relative direction of the coolant stream to the gas streams and its mass flow turns out to significantly affect the cell performance. Besides influencing the electrochemical reaction and all kinds of mass transfer temperature, variations predominantly alter the local membrane hydration distribution and subseqently its conductivity."}],"publication_identifier":{"issn":["0013-4651"]},"day":"27","doi":"10.1149/1.2185282","status":"public","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","extern":"1","volume":153,"issue":"5","author":[{"id":"A8CA28E6-CE23-11E9-AD2D-EC27E6697425","full_name":"Freunberger, Stefan Alexander","orcid":"0000-0003-2902-5319","last_name":"Freunberger","first_name":"Stefan Alexander"},{"first_name":"Alexander","last_name":"Wokaun","full_name":"Wokaun, Alexander"},{"full_name":"Büchi, Felix N.","first_name":"Felix N.","last_name":"Büchi"}],"_id":"7331","publication":"Journal of The Electrochemical Society","article_number":"A909","intvolume":"       153","title":"In-plane effects in large-scale PEFCs: II.

The model is formulated in a dimensional manner, i.e., local transport phenomena are treated one-dimensional in through-plane direction and coupled in-plane by convective transport in the gas and coolant channels. Thus, a two-dimensional slice running through the repetitive unit of a cell from the anode channel via membrane-electrode assembly (MEA) and cathode channel to the coolant channel and from inlet to outlet is modeled. The aim of the work is to elucidate the influence of operating conditions such as feed gas humidities and stoichiometric ratios on the along-the-channel current density distribution and to identify the distinct underlying voltage loss mechanisms. Furthermore, a complicated technical flow field is modeled by a combination of co- and counterflow subdomains and compared with experimental current densities."}]}]
