Radiation-grafted fuel cell membranes proton conductivity

Abstract Radiation-induced graft copolymerization is an attractive technique to prepare alternative proton conducting membranes (PCMs) for fuel cell applications. The purpose of this chapter is to review the latest progress made in the development of various radiation-grafted PCMs for fuel cells. The challenges facing the development of these membranes and their expected future research directions are also discussed.
