Patent

CA 2668895

An electrochemical fuel cell is disclosed. The electrochemical fuel cell comprises a membrane electrode assembly comprising: an anode having an anode gas diffusion layer and an anode electrocatalyst layer; a cathode having a cathode gas diffusion layer and a cathode electrocatalyst layer; and a proton exchange membrane disposed between the anode and the cathode. At least one of the anode electrocatalyst layer and the cathode electrocatalyst layers comprises an electrocatalyst and polyfurfuryl alcohol. The polyfurfuryl alcohol may be distributed uniformly or non-uniformly within the electrocatalyst layer. Methods of making the electrocatalyst layer having an electrocatalyst and polyfurfuryl alcohol are also disclosed.

L'invention concerne une pile à combustible électrochimique comprenant un ensemble électrode à membrane constitué d'une anode possédant une couche de diffusion du gaz et une couche d'électrocatalyseur; d'une cathode possédant une couche de diffusion du gaz et une couche d'électrocatalyseur et d'une membrane échangeuse de protons placée entre l'anode et la cathode. Au moins l'une ou l'autre des couches d'électrocatalyseur anodique et cathodique comprennent un électrocatalyseur et un alcool de polyfurfuryle. L'alcool de polyfurfuryle peut être réparti uniformément ou non uniformément à l'intérieur de la couche d'électrocatalyseur. L'invention concerne également des procédés de fabrication de la couche d'électrocatalyseur possédant un électrocatalyseur et un alcool de polyfurfuryle.
