New 3D printed 10x faster hydrogen-producing fuel cell could power lighter jets
SMRTR summary
Researchers have developed a revolutionary 3D-printed fuel cell that's entirely ceramic, eliminating heavy metal components that make up 75% of traditional fuel cells' weight. The "Monolith" design uses a coral-inspired structure that produces over one watt per gram, generates hydrogen ten times faster than standard models, and withstands extreme conditions—making it potentially viable for aircraft that currently can't use conventional fuel cells due to their weight.
