Abstract

In this paper we report on zirconium phosphate based inorganic membrane preparation and electrochemical characterization. The zirconium oxide microporous membranes were impregnated with colloidal particles of zirconium phosphate and were designed for application in direct methanol fuel cells. Scanning electron microscopy, thermogravimetry and impedance spectroscopy was used for membrane characterization.
