Fuel Cells Electrocatalysis with QM and FF

Abstract

Our studies on hydrogen PEM fuel cells have focused on the Oxygen Reduction Reaction (ORR), which is currently the biggest obstacle to wide spread application, and the role of the Nafion electrolyte in proton conduction and degradation. The big breakthrough here was full solvent (5 layers) solvation, which required ReaxFF to pre-equilibrate the system.
