摘要:
The invention provides a direct methanol fuel cell comprising:(a) a solid fluorinated polymer electrolyte membrane having an ion exchange ratio (IXR) of at least about 17, wherein the solid polymer electrolyte membrane has a first surface and a second surface; and (b) at least one catalyst layer present on each of the first and second surfaces of the solid polymer electrolyte membrane; wherein the fuel cell is operated at a temperature of less than 60 °C; and wherein the methanol cross-over rate is reduced by at least about 20 %; and the power output is equal to or increased up to about 15%, versus a fuel cell comprising a solid fluorinated polymer electrolyte membrane having the same thickness, and an ion exchange ratio (IXR) of about 15.
摘要:
A conductive paste composition contains a source of an electrically conductive metal, a lead-tellurium-based oxide, a discrete oxide of an adhesion promoting element, and an organic vehicle. An article such as a high-efficiency photovoltaic cell is formed by a process of deposition of the paste composition on a semiconductor substrate (e.g., by screen printing) and firing the paste to remove the organic vehicle and sinter the metal and lead-tellurium-based oxide.
