Title:
CATALYST FOR ELECTRODES, COMPOSITION FOR FORMING GAS DIFFUSION ELECTRODE, GAS DIFFUSION ELECTRODE, MEMBRANE ELECTRODE ASSEMBLY, AND FUEL CELL STACK
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2022/071320
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The present invention provides a catalyst for electrodes, said catalyst having excellent catalytic activity and being capable of contributing to the cost reduction of a PEFC. This catalyst for electrodes comprises: a hollow carbon carrier which has nanopores having a pore diameter of from 1 nm to 20 nm; and a plurality of catalyst particles which are supported by the carrier. The catalyst particles contain Pt (zerovalent), and are supported by both inner portions and outer portions of the nanopores of the carrier. If an analysis of the particle size distribution of the catalyst particles is performed using three-dimensional reconstructed images obtained through a STEM-based electron tomography measurement, the proportion of the catalyst particles supported by the inner portions of the nanoparticles is 50% or more; at least one nanopore is formed in a cubic image having a side of from 20 nm to 50 nm, said cubic image being obtained from a three-dimensional reconstructed image of a catalyst aggregate; and this nanopore has the shape of a continuously extending intercommunicating pore.
