Anode and Cathode Gas Diffusion Electrodes (GDE) for an electrochemical device consist of catalyst loaded onto a gas diffusion layer (GDL). The mostly commonly used catalysts include carbon supported Platinum and Platinum/Ruthenium for the best catalyst dispersion and utilization for PEM Fuel Cells. Electrodes for a fuel cell applications are generally hydrophobic to reduce flooding issue during fuel cell operation.
Gas Diffusion Electrodes (GDE) are suitable for use in the building and/or researching of your own fuel cell
