Two-Stage Chemical Degradation of PTFE with H- and HO-Radicals: A DFT Study Under PEMFC Operating Conditions

Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) plays a fundamental role in proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) as it enhances the structural integrity of the gas diffusion and microporous layers and, more importantly, helps with water management. However, it is also vulnerable to different kinds of degradation under PEMFC o...
