摘要:
A mechanization of a fuel cell system and a method of operating the same is provided which simplifies the start-up of the fuel cell system. The fuel cell system can be started up without using any battery derived high voltage power to drive a high voltage compressor. The present invention provides for the use of a low voltage blower to provide oxygen to the cathode side of the fuel cell stack to enable start-up of the fuel cell stack without the initial use of a high voltage compressor. The low voltage blower can be powered by a low voltage power source and/or the voltage produced by the fuel cell stack.

In order to produce a polymer electrolyte membrane from sulfonated, aromatic polyether ketone, an aromatic polyether ketone of the formula (I) ##STR1## in which Ar is a phenylene ring having p- and/or m-bonds,Ar' is a phenylene, naphthylene, biphenylene, anthrylene or another divalent aromatic unit,X, N and M, independently of one another are 0 or 1,Y is 0, 1, 2 or 3,P is 1, 2, 3 or 4,is sulfonated and the sulfonic acid is isolated. At least 5% of the sulfonic groups in the sulfonic acid are converted into sulfonyl chloride groups, and these are reacted with an amine containing at least one crosslinkable substituent or a further functional group, and unreacted sulfonyl chloride groups are subsequently hydrolyzed. The resultant aromatic sulfonamide is isolated and dissolved in an organic solvent, the solution is converted into a film, and the crosslinkable substituents in the film are then crosslinked.In specific cases, the crosslinkable substituents can be omitted. In this case, sulfonated polyether ketone is converted into a film from solution.

An electrochemical cell has at least one membrane strip that forms a central area and at least two, maximum 10,000 flat individual cells. The individual cells consist each of an electrode layer applied on both sides of a membrane made of a polymer solid electrolyte and of a corresponding number of flat electronically conductive areas. The individual cells are connected in series and the central area is provided with an appropriate periphery in the cell.
