Problems solved by technology

However, when such solid polymer fuel cells are used for example in automobiles, large load fluctuations caused by starting and stopping, etc. will lead to the oxidation reaction of carbon (C+2H 2 O→CO 2 +4H + +4e - )
For example, when the potential of the cathode is 0.9V or higher, the oxidation reaction of carbon is easy to proceed. In this case, the platinum on the carbon will accumulate and fall off, so the performance of the battery will drop significantly.
