摘要:
The present invention provides a polymer electrolyte fuel cell, which is inexpensive and has an excellent efficiency of generating electric power, by using a material alternative to a perfluoroalkylene sulfonic acid polymer. The polymer electrolyte fuel cell comprises a pair of electrodes (2, 3) consisting of an oxygen electrode (2) and a fuel electrode (3) both having a catalyst layer (5) containing a catalyst and an ion conducting material; and a polymer electrolyte membrane (1) sandwiched between the two catalyst layers (5) of the both electrodes (2, 3). The above ion conducting material contained in the above polymer electrolyte membrane (1) or in the catalyst (5) layer of at least one of the above electrodes (2, 3) comprises a sulfonated polyarylene having sulfonic acid side-chain groups.

A composite polymer electrolyte membrane is formed from a first polymer electrolyte comprising a sulfonated polyarytene polymer and a second polymer electrolyte comprising another hydrocarbon polymer electrolyte. In the first polymer electrolyte, 2-70 mol % constitutes an aromatic compound unit with an electron-attractive group in its principal chain, while 30-98 mol % constitutes an aromatic compound unit without an electron-attractive group in its principal chain. The second polymer electrolyte is a sulfonated polyether or sulfonated polysulfide polymer electrolyte.

摘要:
With an abrasive dresser for a polishing disc of a chemical-mechanical polisher for abrading a flat rotatable polishing disc of a chemical-mechanical polisher which supplies a chemical polishing agent to the surface of the polishing disc to polish the surface of an article on top of the polishing disc, a sectional shape of an abrasive surface being a peripheral portion of a flat disc shaped base member which protrudes upwards over a predetermined width with an abrasive grit distributed substantially uniformly over and affixed to the surface thereof, is formed as a convex circular arc curved surface. In this way, the portion of contact with the polishing disc of the chemical-mechanical polisher becomes surface contact, thereby enabling a reduction in wear during use and an increase in life, together with an increase in the efficiency of abrading the polishing disc.
