One way to reduce the cost of making PEM Fuel Cells is to reduce the thickness of the layer. The layer is located between GDL and PEMFC electrode. This layer, to refute the electrode, is expressed with thickness, porosity, pore diameter, active surface area. In this working paper, the results of the thin film research results have been mapped and the results of the tests are to determine the characteristics of the thin layer thickness reduction. The mapping and analysis results were obtained at thicknesses ranging from 250 µm. In testing the thickness of 250 µm can still be reduced by a spray machine of 145 µm with a carbon density of about 2 mg cm-2 , but PEMFC's performance is smaller than the achievement of 250 µm thick.
