[Also in Division C3] A hydrophobic polymeric matrix having preselected wettable characteristics comprising a continuous phase of sintered fluorocarbon polymeric material having a series of integral interconnecting pores and a discontinuous colloidal mineral phase deposited in said pores, said mineral phase being uniformly arranged from major surface to major surface of said matrix can be used in a fuel cell for retaining an aqueous electrolyte or as a support in electrode construction. In the electrode construction, one surface of a thin sheet of the matrix is coated with an activating material, such as platinum black, and the polymeric material surface is maintained in contact with the fuel gas, with the activated surface being in contact with the electrolyte. |
