Title:
MEMBRANE ELECTRODE ASSEMBLY AND SOLID POLYMER FUEL CELL
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2008/032802
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A membrane electrode assembly characterized in that at least either the catalyst
layer of oxygen electrode or the catalyst layer of fuel electrode contains a support
bearing a catalytic metal doped with a platinum group element and contains a proton
conductive polymer electrolyte and further contains at least one member selected
from among (a) complex forming agent having a ligand capable of coordination
with an ion of the platinum group element to thereby form a complex, the ligand
containing oxygen as a coordinating atom, (b) complex of the platinum group element
having a ligand containing oxygen as a coordinating atom and (c) carbon of 100
m2/g or greater BET specific surface area satisfying at least either
the requirement (i) of Raman spectrum R-value of 0.5 or less or the requirement
(ii) of (002) face plane spacing d002 of 0.35 nm or less, the carbon not
bearing the catalytic metal. By the use of this membrane electrode assembly,
there can be provided a solid polymer fuel cell of high durability and prolonged
life duration.
