| 摘要 |
The present invention is relative to a fuel cell and an electrode module forming the fuel cell. The electrode module EM supports an electrolyte film (11) containing a proton conductor, capable of conducting protons under a non-humidifying condition, by a frame (20) of a preset shape. A fuel cell (30) includes an electrode module EM and a cooling channel on at least one side of this electrode module EM. This electrode module EM is made up by a frame (20) supporting the electrolyte film (11), a film of a porous fuel transmitting material (17) carrying a catalyst and a film of a porous oxygen transmitting material (18) carrying a catalyst layer and particles of a hydrophobic material. This fuel cell can be driven under a dry environment and under broad operating temperature conditions. In addition, scalable cells from a cell of a small capacity to a large capacity may be constructed with the same module. |
