General Motors proposes to use federal funds to develop and analyze partially dealloyed platinum within fuel cell catalyst operation, as well cost and fuel cell durability. These tests also address Department of Energy (DOE) targets for fuel cell durability. This project involves demonstrations of beginning-of-life mass activity to develop materials that exceed DOE's target for oxygen reduction reactions activity, small scale demonstration of durability to evaluate the enhanced oxygen reduction reaction activity, demonstrate the ability of beginning-of-life power density in membrane-electrode assemblies by developing tests to measure oxygen to minimize transport limitations within the fuel cell. evaluation of the power density achieved in fuel cells.
