| Abstract | Herein, a novel natural wood derived macroporous carbon sheet with three-dimension inter-connected perpendicular-channels was engineered as gas diffusion layers (w-GDLs) for air-breathing proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). Beneficial to the unique accessible perpendicular channels and the presence of a microporous layer, the current density reached 0.139 A/cm2 (at 0.6 V) and the maximum power density elevated up to 0.102 W/cm2 (at 0.43 V), which are comparable to the best results reported for the air-breathing PEMFCs with high Pt loadings. Furthermore, it exhibited excellent durability during preliminary constant discharge operation, demonstrating the feasibility of this w-GDL for practical applications. |
