In order to enhance the performance of the Direct Methanol Fuel Cell, the product of CO2 bubble have to be efficiently removed from the anode channel. In this study, MEMS process and PDMS material are used to form the anode channel of a DMFC. Otherwise, some particles with different hydrophilic properties are added into the PDMS materials, respectively, to reduce the hydro-resistance in the anode channel. In this study, it is found the performance of the DMFC with the anode channel made of PDMS and MCM-41and MWCNTs particles can be enhanced under the same operating temperature and fuel flow rate.
