摘要:
In an manufacturing apparatus, a belt-shaped electrolyte polymer is conveyed in a state disposed to a back sheet. A first reinforcement membrane is conveyed in a state disposed to a back sheet, and, in a first sticking section, stuck with the belt-shaped electrolyte polymer. In a first thermocompression bonding section, the belt-shaped electrolyte polymer and the first reinforcement membrane are thermally compressed. At this time, a molten electrolyte polymer reaches between the first reinforcement membrane and the back sheet thereof, and the first adhesiveness between the first reinforcement membrane and the back sheet thereof becomes higher than the second adhesiveness between the belt-shaped electrolyte polymer and the back sheet thereof. A first peel section peels, in this state, the back sheet from the belt-shaped electrolyte polymer.

The invention relates to a membrane-electrode unit comprising two gas diffusion layers each in contact with a catalyst layer, separated by a polymer-electrolyte membrane. The polymer-electrolyte membrane comprises an inner region which is in contact with a catalyst layer, and an outer layer which is not provided on the surface of a gas diffusion layer. The inventive membrane-electrode unit is characterised in that the thickness of the inner region of the membrane decreases by at least 5 % at a pressure of 5 N/mm2 over a period of 10 minutes, and the thickness of the outer region of the membrane is greater than the thickness of the inner region of the membrane.

The present invention provides fuel cells and fuel cell systems that include a non-aqueous electrolyte. Fuel cells according to the present invention include an anode region adapted to receive a hydrogen stream, a cathode region adapted to receive a stream containing oxygen, and an electrolytic barrier that separates the anode region from the cathode region and which contains a non-aqueous electrolyte. The non-aqueous electrolyte is preferably acidic or basic, with the electrolyte having an acid ionization constant (Ka) greater than 5x10-6 at 25 °C if the non-aqueous electrolyte is an acid and a base ionization constant (K¿b?) greater than 5x10?-6¿ at 25 °C if the non-aqueous electrolyte is a base. The fuel cell has an operating temperature of less than 300 °C, and may operate at temperatures above, at, and below 100 °C.

摘要:
For example, polysulfated phenylene sulfonic acid, aniline, and sodium chloride are mixed in water. During this process, the interactive absorption force between polysulfated phenylene sulfonic acid and aniline is decreased by sodium ion produced by the ionization of sodium chloride. In this state, aniline is easily polymerized to produce polyaniline, and polyaniline and polysulfated phenylene sulfonic acid are compatibilized with each other to produce a compatibilized polymer in a form of solid. The compatibilized polymer is separated from the solvent and then dissolved, then being formed to have a predetermined shape. Thus, a proton conductive solid polymer electrolyte (10) is manufactured.

The present invention relates to a novel proton-conducting polymer membrane based on polyazoles which can, because of its excellent chemical and thermal properties, be used in a variety of ways and is particularly useful as polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) to produce membrane electrode units for PEM fuel cells.
摘要:
The invention relates to a cation-conducting or proton-conducting ceramic membrane, a method for the production thereof and the use of the same. The inventive membrane represents a novel category of solid proton-conducting membranes, and is based on a porous and flexible ceramic membrane described in patent application PCT/EP98/05939. Said membrane is modified in such a way that it exhibits ion-conducting properties, and is then treated with an ionic liquid. Due to the use of the ionic liquid, the inventive membrane has a very good proton or cation conductivity even at temperatures above 100 °C. The proton-conducting or cation-conducting ceramic membrane thus remains flexible and can be used without a problem as a membrane in a fuel cell.

A fuel cell, comprising a housing, at least one first polymer proton-conducting layer (1) covered by catalyst layers on both sides, gas-permeable electrodes (2) on the catalyst layers, and second layers (3) arranged on both sides of the first layers (1), whereby said second layers take the form of electro-conductive plates that are located in closely adjacent electro-conductive contact with the electrodes (2), define gas-conducting channels in conjunction with the electrodes (2), and one layer (1, 3) touches the other layer (3, 1) by means of a substantially planar surface. The first layer (1) or the second layers (3) is/are provided with an undulation, pleating and/or a deep imprint in order to form channels (4)
