The technical challenge is encountered when water in proton exchange fuel cells freezes at sub-zero temperature. The effect of ice formation in proton exchange fuel cells on materials and components such as proton exchange membrane, catalyst layer, diffusion layer, etc, has been reviewed in this paper. The cold start-up strategies for fuel cells at sub-zero temperature are briefly introduced. In addition, keeping internal temperature of cells above zero, cold start-up with assistance and without assistance are summarized to solve the challenge. It is suggest that for the stacks starting up below zero without assistance, the research on the cold start-up strategies should be developed based on the materials research.
