<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a direct methanol fuel cell capable of using fuel having higher methanol concentration by suppressing the diffusion of water from an anode to a cathode. <P>SOLUTION: The direct methanol fuel cell has an electrolyte membrane 21, an anode catalyst layer 22, a cathode catalyst layer 23, dense water repellent layers 26, 28 of water repellent nature, and porous gas diffusion layers 25, 27. The dense water repellent layer is formed by baking coated slurry containing carbon and a water repellent polymer and has the thickness after baking of 100μm or more. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT</p> |
