PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a small diameter NiC nanoparticle of a particle size of less than 10nm that is smaller than ever before; a production method of the same; a small diameter NiC nanoparticle inclusion electrode catalyst; and a production method of the same.SOLUTION: A Ni-Cp cluster is heated under the decompression, and at at most 200°C, thereby a small diameter NiC nanoparticle of a particle size of less than 10 nm is produced. A powder comprising the NiC nanoparticle, a proton electroconductive polymer, and an alcohol are mixed to prepare a solution for deposition, the solution for deposition is applied to an electrode substrate, then dehydrated to form a film that comprises the proton electroconductive polymer in which the small diameter NiC nanoparticle is dispersed on the electrode substrate, and a small diameter NiC nanoparticle inclusion electrode catalyst is produced. |
