Abstract:The gas diffusion layer (GDL) of a proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) primarily consists of a carbon paper layer and a microporous layer (MPL), which directly influences the mass transfer efficiency and performance stability of the fuel cell. This paper reviewed the application forms of novel GDL, including ultra-thin, flexible, and integrated types, and introduced research progress on enhancing the water management capability, conductivity, and mechanical properties of the carbon paper layer and MPL through technology improvements and material optimization. Based on the application requirements of GDL, the paper summarized technical strategies for improving water vapor transport performance by optimizing pore structure, adjusting component ratios, and designing contact interfaces, as well as enhancing corrosion resistance and durability of GDL through different coating technologies. Finally, the future development directions of GDL were outlined.
