Abstract

The paper describes the features of fuel cells using proton conductors as electrolyte. Comments on the properties of some intermediate and high temperature proton conductors and their applications for fuel cells are given. Finally, further research areas including the search for new proton conductors and new electrode materials compatible to the electrolytes as well as the development of preparation techniques are proposed.
