In PEMFC, the oxygen transport resistance severely hinders the cell from achieving high performance. In this paper, pore-forming agent was used to optimize the pore size distribution of the catalyst layer (CL), and to study its effect on the mechanism of oxygen transport resistance, including molecu...
