<p>The Corromap project aims to close the knowledge gap in corrosion measurement for fuel cells. Corrosion limits the performance and lifespan of fuel cells crucial for the hydrogen economy. The research focuses on in situ corrosion measurements during the operation of the cells. Partners include the Fachhochschule Südwestfalen in Iserlohn and the Zentrum für Brennstoffzellentechnologie Duisburg (ZBT).</p><p>The project aims to introduce sensor technology into fuel cells to vary corrosion conditions under laboratory conditions. The ultimate goal is to prevent corrosion and performance losses in the necessary fuel cell technology.</p><p>Strategies include monitoring and controlling the operating conditions of fuel cells, optimizing materials and coatings, and developing cost-effective manufacturing processes.</p>
