Enhancing the mechanical properties of zirconia/Nafion® nanocomposite membrane through carbon nanotubes for fuel cell application

Membranes are widely used daily, such as for filtration in reverse osmosis, or in the form of electrolyte membrane fuel cells. Modified Nafion® membranes were synthesised by impregnation and their mechanical properties were observed. The effect of the incorporation of a ZrO2-CNT nano-filler within N...
