    摘要: Disclosed are sulfonated aromatic perfluorocyclobutane polymers meeting a condition selected from: a) the equivalent weight of the polymer is 5000 or less, and b) the proton conductivity of the polymer at 25° C. is 0.01 Siemens per centimeter (S/cm) or higher, and methods of making same, especially sulfonated aromatic perfluorocyclobutane polymers which comprise units according to the formula: wherein —B— is 1,2-perfluorocyclobutylene (C4F6); each —X— is independently selected from the group consisting of: a bond, —O—, —S—, —SO—, —SO2—, —CO—, —NH—, —NR1—, and —R2—, wherein R1 is C1-C25 substituted or unsubstituted, saturated or unsaturated alkyl or aryl and R2 is C1-C25 substituted or unsubstituted, saturated or unsaturated alkylene or arylene; —Ar— is a substituted or unsubstituted C1-C30 at least divalent aromatic hydrocarbon group; n is a non-negative integer chosen independently for each of said repeating units such that the average for the polymer is greater than 0. They are particularly useful in ion conducting membranes for use in electrochemical cells.

    摘要: A fuel cell cathode catalyst is provided which comprises nanostructured elements comprising microstructured support whiskers bearing nanoscopic catalyst particles. The nanoscopic catalyst particles are made by the alternating application of first and second layers, the first layer comprising platinum and the second layer being an alloy or intimate mixture of iron and a second metal selected from the group consisting of Group VIb metals, Group VIIb metals and Group VIIIb metals other than platinum and iron, where the atomic ratio of iron to the second metal in the second layer is between 0 and 10, where the planar equivalent thickness ratio of the first layer to the second layer is between 0.3 and 5, and wherein the average bilayer planar equivalent thickness of the first and second layers is less than 100 Å.
