摘要:
A problem to be solved is to enhance the charge and discharge characteristics and rate characteristics of a B-type titanium oxide (TiO 2 (B)) powder by a simple treatment and to provide a B-type titanium oxide powder that can be suitably used as a negative electrode material for a lithium ion battery. A B-type titanium oxide powder is allowed to undergo a reaction under a fluorine-containing gas atmosphere at 0°C to 200°C for 1 minute to 10 days to obtain a surface-fluorinated B-type titanium oxide powder. It is preferred that the fluorination treatment is performed at 0.01 atm to 2 atm. It is preferred that a gas containing a fluorine compound selected from a fluorine (F 2 ) gas, a nitrogen trifluoride (NF 3 ) gas, a perfluorotrimethylamine (N(CF 3 ) 3 ) gas, a chlorine trifluoride (ClF 3 ) gas and the like is used as the fluorine-containing gas.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a method for manufacturing a platinum core-shell catalyst that uses palladium (Pd) as a core metal, or a platinum catalyst containing platinum and a metal besides platinum, wherein the platinum catalyst is supported on carbon and has excellent oxygen reduction activity; and a manufacturing method by which it is possible to manufacture the catalyst industrially on a mass scale. This method for manufacturing a platinum catalyst for a fuel cell containing platinum and a metal besides platinum includes (I) a step for bringing about the presence of a chemical species imparting higher potential than the initial oxide formation potential of the platinum of the platinum catalyst, and (II) a step for bringing about the presence of a chemical species imparting lower potential than the initial oxide formation potential of the platinum of the platinum catalyst, the steps being carried out in a dispersion solution of the platinum catalyst dispersed in an acidic solution containing protons.
