Key Points

To enhance the operational stability and durability of proton exchange membrane fuel cells by modifying carbon fiber paper with lignin-containing nanocellulose fibers.
Development of lignin-containing nanocellulose fibers to modify carbon fiber paper.
Evaluation of the modified carbon fiber paper in proton exchange membrane fuel cells.
Assessment of durability and operational stability under various conditions.
The modified carbon fiber paper showed significantly improved durability compared to standard carbon fiber paper.
Operational stability was enhanced, reducing the degradation rate by X% (exact percentage needs to be confirmed).
The performance of proton exchange membrane fuel cells improved in both efficiency and longevity.

Abstract

The commercial feasibility of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) is often hindered by the insufficient durability and high cost of carbon fiber paper (CP). Here, we report a sustainable...
