In this approach, Nafion is looked upon as a composite consisting of three constituents: a crystalline Nafion, amorphous Nafion, and water. Taking into account the degree of hydration, its elastic, elastic-plastic, and hysteretic properties are discussed and modeled. It is shown how the interaction between the three constituents manifests itself on the macroscale.
