Abstract
Back cover image: Fuel cells are electrochemical energy conversion devices that promise clean routes of generating energy for enabling carbon neutrality. The electrolyte membrane medium sandwiched between two electrodes plays a vital role in improving their conversion efficiency and the durability. In the article number cey2.695, Yang et al. provide a comprehensive overview on recent advances in nanofiber-based polyelectrolyte membranes for fuel cells. Emerging strategies for the use of electrospun nanofibers and natural nanofibers as proton-exchange membranes and anion-exchange membranes are carefully outlined, respectively. The key challenges and potential solutions in such fields are finally presented.
期刊介绍:
Carbon Energy is an international journal that focuses on cutting-edge energy technology involving carbon utilization and carbon emission control. It provides a platform for researchers to communicate their findings and critical opinions and aims to bring together the communities of advanced material and energy. The journal covers a broad range of energy technologies, including energy storage, photocatalysis, electrocatalysis, photoelectrocatalysis, and thermocatalysis. It covers all forms of energy, from conventional electric and thermal energy to those that catalyze chemical and biological transformations. Additionally, Carbon Energy promotes new technologies for controlling carbon emissions and the green production of carbon materials. The journal welcomes innovative interdisciplinary research with wide impact. It is indexed in various databases, including Advanced Technologies & Aerospace Collection/Database, Biological Science Collection/Database, CAS, DOAJ, Environmental Science Collection/Database, Web of Science and Technology Collection.
