Abstract:
The invention includes a manufacturing method of an electrode catalyst layer which contains a polymer electrolyte, a catalyst and carbon particles and achieves a high power generation performance even when an oxide of non-platinum is used as the catalyst. The method has a feature of including either a process of preliminarily embedding the catalyst in the polymer electrolyte or a process of preliminarily embedding the carbon particles in the polymer electrolyte.
Abstract:
Catalyst particles includes a catalyst material and carbon particles supporting the catalyst material. The catalyst particles has a water content of 4.8 mass % or more and 20 mass % or less. A manufacturing method of catalyst particles includes exposing catalyst particles, which are carbon particles supporting a catalyst material, to a humidified atmosphere, prior to dispersing the carbon particles and a polymer electrolyte in a solvent for a catalyst ink.
