POLYELECTROLYTE FUEL CELL AND PRODUCTION METHOD THEREFOR

摘要

A polyelectrolyte fuel cell having a gas channel, a proton channel and an electron channel formed in the vicinity of a pole in a catalyst layer to increase a reaction area, and comprising a hydrogen ion conductive polyelectrolyte film, and a pair of electrodes each having a catalyst layer sandwiching the hydrogen ion conductive polyelectrolyte film and a gas diffusion layer in contact with the catalyst layer, wherein the catalyst layer of at least one electrode contains carbon particles each supporting a noble-metal catalyst, and the carbon particles consist of at least two types of carbon particles being in mutually different dispersion conditions and having a hydrogen ion conductive polyelectrolyte adsorbed thereto.
