Global Fuel Cell Gas Diffusion Layer (GDL) Competitive Landscape Professional Research Report 2025
Research SummaryThe Fuel Cell Gas Diffusion Layer (GDL) is a crucial component in fuel cell technology, serving as a porous, conductive material that facilitates the efficient transport of reactants within the fuel cell. Typically composed of materials like carbon paper or carbon cloth, the GDL allows hydrogen fuel and oxygen from the air to reach the catalyst layers within the fuel cell, where electrochemical reactions take place. The GDL provides a conductive pathway for the electrons generated during these reactions, facilitating the flow of electrical current and contributing to the overall efficiency of the fuel cell. Additionally, the GDL aids in managing water within the fuel cell, helping to prevent flooding or drying out of the electrolyte. The design and properties of the Fuel Cell Gas Diffusion Layer play a critical role in optimizing the performance and longevity of fuel cells in various applications, from automotive fuel cell systems to stationary power generation.
