“…However, metallic BPPs have also been considered, particularly for LT-PEMFCs, due to their lower cost, lower weight and volume (especially when thin films are used), and an easier manufacture than graphitebased ones [31,32]. For HT-PEMFCs, the use of metallic BPPs has only been recently considered [18,[33][34][35][36][37][38]. HT-PEMFCs present a more corrosive environment in comparison to LT-PEMFCs, due to the higher temperature of operation, that enhances corrosion processes in acidic environments.…”
