Les composants de ces deux dernières piles à combustible (PAFC et PEMFC) sont très semblables, sauf pour ce qui est de l'électrolyte. Dans le cas de la PAFC, l'électrolyte est de l'acide phosphorique (aussi un électrolyte conducteur de protons), un liquide, alors qu'il s'agit d'un polymère solide dans le cas de la PEMFC. 5, record 1, French, - pile%20%C3%A0%20acide%20phosphorique
