Embodiment Construction
[0017] While this specification leads to the conclusion that the claims defining the features of the invention are considered novel, it is believed that the structure, method of operation and advantages of the invention will be better understood from the following description when considered in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Thermosensitive polymers can compensate for hydration by taking advantage of the elevated temperatures that fuel cells experience during operation and the transition that fuel cells undergo at elevated temperatures from hydrophobic to hydrophilic (and vice versa). To maintain optimal hydration of polymer electrolyte membranes, thermosensitive polymers are included in fuel cells. The thermosensitive polymer is in close proximity to the membrane electrode assembly so that fuel and oxidant gases pass through the thermosensitive polymer to the membrane electrode assembly. In response to changes in the operating temperature of the membrane electrod...
