    摘要: A solid fuel composition which is suitable for preparing a liquid fuel for a direct liquid fuel cell. The composition comprises at least one solid hydride compound selected from borohydrides, aluminum hydrides, and metal hydrides, and at least one alkaline compound selected from hydroxides of alkali and alkaline earth metals, Zn, Al, and ammonium. If placed in a direct liquid fuel cell and contacted with an aqueous liquid the composition dissolves gradually as the at least one hydride compound is consumed while the fuel cell is in operation. This Abstract is neither intended to define the invention disclosed in this specification nor intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way.

    摘要: A fuel cell includes a cathode, an anode, a fuel chamber, and a membrane arranged between the anode and the fuel chamber. The membrane is structured and arranged to allow gas to accumulate adjacent the anode at least to a point where the gas limits or substantially prevents a contact between the anode and a fuel. The method includes generating electrical energy with the fuel cell, preventing further generation of electrical energy of the fuel cell, and facilitating, with the membrane, an accumulation of the gas adjacent the anode at least to a point where the gas substantially prevents a contact between the anode and the fuel. Another method includes using a gas which is formed by an initial decomposition of the fuel to restrict or substantially prevent any further contact between the fuel and the anode. This Abstract is not intended to define the invention disclosed in the specification, nor intended to limit the scope of the invention in any way.

    摘要: A fuel composition for fuel cells includes a polar solvent such as water, a first portion of a first fuel dissolved in the solvent at a saturated concentration, and a second portion of the first fuel suspended in the solvent to serve as a reservoir of fuel as the dissolved portion is consumed. Preferably, the first fuel is a hydride such as NaBH4. Optionally, the fuel composition also includes a second fuel such as an alcohol that also controls the solubility of the first fuel in the solvent, inhibits decomposition of the first fuel and stabilizes the suspension. Preferably, the fuel composition also includes an additive such as an alkali for stabilizing the first fuel.
