• Show that heteropoly acid (HPA)-containing films can be fabricated thin and have a low area specific resistance (ASR) at the temperature of an automotive fuel cell stack and at higher temperatures likely to be operational transients whilst also functioning as an electrical resistor. • Increase HPA loading and organization for maximum proton conduction in a functionalized commercial fluoroelastomer manufactured by 3M.
