Carbonaceous Catalysts for H3PO4 Fuel Cells.
Abstract
UOP Kocite(R) materials are being evaluated as low cost air and/or fuel electrocatalysts in phosphoric acid electrolyte fuel cells. Kocite(R) materials are composite structures consisting of pyropolymers chemically bonded to refractory substrates. Fuel cell electrodes are fabricated and tested as anodes or cathodes in model fuel cells with conventional Pt fuel electrodes as counter electrodes. The performance of Kocite(R) materials as electrocatalysts has been studied. The second part of the program is directed toward evaluating the performance of Kocite(R) materials as platinum catalyst supports. Results to date indicate promising fuel cell performance at unusually low platinum loadings.
