Fuel Cells, Volume 26, Issue 4, August 2026.ABSTRACT Gas diffusion layers (GDLs), a critical component in H2${\rm H}_{2}$/O2${\rm O}_{2}$ proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs), are commonly treated with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) for controlling hydrophobicity. However, the influence of the GDL's native microstructure on the final PTFE spatial distribution is still poorly understood ...
