In this study, synchrotron X-ray imaging is used to investigate the water transport inside
newly developed GDM (gas diffusion medium) in polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells …

The neutron imaging instrument CONRAD was operated as a part of the user program of the
research reactor BER-II at Helmholtz-Zentrum Berlin (HZB) from 2005 to 2020. The …

PEM fuel cells can be operated within a wide range of different operating conditions. In this
paper, the special case of operating a PEM fuel cell with a dry cathode supply and without …

The proton transport properties of Nafion membranes were studied in a wide range of
temperature by using an air-tight sample holder able to maintain the sample hydrated at …

Polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) fabricated by direct membrane
deposition (DMD) were shown to work even at dry conditions without significant …

This paper demonstrates the capabilities of the new instrument CONRAD II at Helmholtz
Centre Berlin for the investigation of fuel cells. The performance gain of CONRAD II with …

We present an experimental approach to study the three-dimensional microstructure of gas
diffusion layer (GDL) materials under realistic compression conditions. A dedicated …

The microstructure of a fuel cell electrode largely determines the performance of the whole
fuel cell system. In this regard, tomographic imaging is a valuable tool for the understanding …

No studies using diffraction have specifically aimed to study the (hkl) specific shear strain of
lattice planes to the application of pure shear due to applied torsion. Also no measures of …

The use of non-invasive and non-destructive measurement techniques is of fundamental
importance for the investigation of samples of great historical, cultural and artistic value …
