Methanol (MeOH) can be utilized directly (without the need for a reformer) with Direct Methanol Fuel Cell (DMFC) Membrane Electrode Assemblies (MEA). It also allows a liquid fuel to be used directly in a fuel cell instead of a gaseous fuel. The DMFC MEA is often useful in lower power applications. The DMFC MEAs are 5-Layer.

Active Area	Membrane Area
2.2cm x 2.2cm	10.0cm x 10.0cm
5.0cm x 5.0cm	10.0cm x 10.0cm
7.1cm x 7.1cm	13.0cm x 13.0cm
10.0cm x 10.0cm	13.0cm x 13.0cm

Please note: Membrane Electrode Assemblies containing ruthenium catalysts do not adhere to membranes well. It is typical for a GDE containing Ru to delaminate from the membrane. If the MEA is not installed in a hardware, we recommend placing it in a zip-top bag and keeping it under something like a book to keep the GDE and membrane from separating.
