“…As the data in Figure 5b suggested, after being subjected to the simulated shear condition of 1000 s −1 for 10 s, only IC15SC20 is free from the loss of elastic connectivity while the others have lost a certain extent of the elastic response after the restructuring. The loss of the elasticity of the ionomer-Pt/C assemblage in the catalyst inks can be attributed to a spatial redistribution of the ionomer when subjected to high shear [17]. Given the attractive nature of these assemblages, it is reasonable to expect that restructuring would favor coalescence primarily due to ionomer aggregation and adsorption.…”

“…Two factors, the ionomer-to-carbon (I/C) weight ratio and solid content (SC), are commonly involved in the catalyst layer design process. In particular, the I/C ratio has been found to strongly impact the transport resistance via ionomer thin-film morphology and the agglomerate size [13][14][15][16][17][18]. The solid content, which governs the particle concentration, is often overlooked as its influence can be negligible under certain conditions.…”
