Moreover, aligned channels are not enough for increased and motivated the research efforts towards the porous AEMs applied in fuel cells, as a dense layer is efficient and alternative energy conversion devices [1 , also needed to suppress fuel penetration. 2]. Among them, anion exchange membrane fuel cell Porous anodic aluminium oxide (AAO) is a popular tem- (AEMFC) has been treated as a promising power source plate for the fabrication of the one-dimensional nanofibres due to the fast electrooxidation kinetics, platinum-free due to its ideal cylindrical pore shape and extremely nar- electrocatalysts and fuel flexibility (e.g., ethanol, formate, row pore size distribution [28–30].
