Increased Activity of Catalyst Using Inorganic Acids

The present disclosure provides for improved electrochemical devices (e.g., fuel cells, metal air batteries, ultra capacitors, etc.) and components therefore. More particularly, the present disclosure provides for improved systems and methods for producing materials, membranes, electrode assemblies (e.g., membrane electrode assemblies) and electrochemical devices employing the membranes and/or electrode assemblies. The present disclosure provides for improved systems and methods for producing high activity materials, membranes and/or electrode assemblies (e.g., MEAs) for use in electrochemical devices, wherein the high activity membranes and/or electrode assemblies include at least one inorganic acid. In exemplary embodiments, the present disclosure provides for improved systems and methods for producing high activity membranes and/or electrode assemblies (e.g., MEAs) for use in electrochemical devices, wherein the high activity membranes and/or electrode assemblies include at least one inorganic acid in the catalyst layer and/or in the cathode.
