Abstract: A proton exchange membrane (PEM) is made. The PEM has a high relational selective coefficient. This means the PEM of the present invention can better confine methanol yet still remains good methanol conducting capacity. The present invention has an easy fabrication process with no additional material needed. And the present invention can be used in a fuel cell like DMFC or H01M008/10.

Abstract: A carbon nanotube is prepared under a non-vacuum environment. An atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition (APCVD) is processed with an external high frequency source and a perpendicularly-supplied gas material source for a cold-wall heating treatment. The carbon nanotube is thus obtained with a vertically aligned arrangement at a high speed and a pure quality for production.

Abstract: A protective coating is formed on a stainless interconnecting plate used in solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC). With the protective coating, a contact resistance of the plate is effectively lowered. Anode and cathode of SOFC are also prevented from being poisoned by chromium diffusion from the plate. Therefore, after a long time of use under a high temperature, a degradation rate for power generating of SOFC is reduced; and, thus, a working hour is prolonged. Hence, the SOFC can be mass-produced and large-scaled.
