    摘要: A catalyst complex for fuel cells and a method for manufacturing an electrode including the same are disclosed. The catalyst complex for fuel cells, which is included in an electrode for fuel cells, includes a first catalyst configured to cause hydrogen oxidation reaction (HOR) and a second catalyst configured to cause water electrolysis reaction, i.e., oxygen evolution reaction (OER). The outer surface of the first catalyst is coated with a first ionomer binder, the outer surface of the second catalyst is coated with a second ionomer binder, and an equivalent weight (EW) of the second ionomer binder differs from an equivalent weight (EW) of the first ionomer binder.

    摘要: A fuel cell stack includes a membrane electrode assembly including a cathode and an anode which are catalyst layers and are formed on a first and a second surface, respectively, of an electrolyte membrane, a first separator disposed at one side of the membrane electrode assembly, and a second separator disposed at the other side of the membrane electrode assembly, wherein a gas path through which a gas is discharged from the cathode or the anode, or a gas is supplied to the cathode or the anode, is disposed between the second separator and the membrane electrode assembly and is formed in a non-reaction zone, and wherein the gas path includes a flow path expansion portion and a height of the flow path expansion portion is greater than a height of a reaction zone.
