Performing of novel nanostructure MEA based on polyaniline modified anode in direct methanol fuel cell

► Synthesis of PANI nanofibers on the surface of PtRu/C catalyst. ► Making MEA by PANI modified anode and conventional cathode and membrane for DMFC. ► Evaluating of PANI nanofibers modified anode (PANI/PtRu/C) in DMFC on first time. ► Gain to higher performance and lower MeOH crossover by new MEA compared to usual MEA.
