Electrocatalyst particles for fuel cells
F O C U S Electrocatalyst particles for fuel cells Metallic electrocatalyst particles are contained within the plastic membranes of fuel cells. There are problems in dispersing such particles. In this patent, the fine metallic particles are deposited on the surfaces of larger carbon particles. US 7,479,469, JGC Catalysts and Chemicals Ltd, Japan, 20 Jan 2009
