FUEL CELL, AND METHOD OF ALLEVIATING ELECTRODE PERFORMANCE DEGRADATION DURING START AND STOP CYCLES

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a fuel cell with performance degradation of an electrode made minimum after a number of start and stop cycles.

SOLUTION: In one embodiment, the fuel cell is provided with an electrolyte membrane having a first face and a second face, an anode on the first face and a cathode on the second face, and the anode carries less than 50% catalyst of what the cathode does.
