Optimization of Ptdoped KOCITE (Trade Name) Electrodes in H3PO4 Fuel Cells.

Abstract

The use of UOP Inc. Kocite electrocatalysts as low-cost air and/or fuel electrocatalysts in phosphoric acid electrolyte fuel cells is being optimized with respect to some of the electrocatalyst and electrode structure parameters. Kocite electrocatalysts are made from Kocite materials, which are composite structures consisting of pyropolymers chemically bonded to refractory substrates. Fuel cell electrodes are fabricated from these electrocatalysts and normally tested as anodes and cathodes in model fuel cells.
