ELECTROCATALYST, AND ELECTRODES, MEMBRANE-ELECTRODE ASSEMBLYAND SOLID POLYMER ELECTROLYTE FUEL CELLS, USING SAID ELECTROCATALYST

摘要

There are provided an electrocatalyst having an excellent poisoning resistance to carbon monoxide for use in solid polymer electrolyte fuel cells, an electrode, a membrane-electrode assembly, and a solid polymer electrolyte fuel cell, using said electrocatalyst. The electrocatalyst is comprised of a cubic platinum-ruthenium solid solution alloy and a hexagonal ruthenium supported together on a conductive carbon carrier.
