Tokyo Institute of Technology scientist have discovered a promising proton conductor for protonic ceramic fuel cells. Ba2LuAlO5 “has a remarkably high proton conductivity, even without any additional chemical modifications”, according to the university. Protonic ceramic fuel cells use solid proton-conducting ceramic electrolytes and operate between 300 and 600°C. This compares to over 700°C for better-established …
