Hydrogen energy is a green and efficient energy source with unique characteristics like vast availability, high combustion heat, and pollution-free emissions. Fuel cells, particularly the proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC), are at the forefront of harnessing hydrogen energy. Nanocomposite proton membranes have advantages and application prospects in fuel cell technology. This paper studies the discussion regarding the characteristics of nano-composite proton membranes and their use in fuel cells. The conclusion is that the nano-composite proton membrane has better electrical conductivity, thermal stability, mechanical properties, and relative selectivity than the ordinary proton membrane. To meet the application requirements of various fuel cells on various occasions, the performance of the nano-composite proton exchange membrane has been enhanced, improving the proton exchange membrane's effectiveness, reducing the application threshold of fuel cells, and maintaining stability to improve its efficiency. Conclusively, nanocomposite proton membranes, with their enhanced properties, hold promising potential in fuel cell applications, offering a sustainable and efficient energy solution.
