Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Ruthenium or a Ruthenium compound is applied to an anode structure according to a predetermined pattern, with only part of the anode active area containing Ru. The parts of the MEA that do not contain Ru are not expected to suffer degradation from Ru cross-over, so that overall degradation of the cell will be diminished. Having less precious metals will also translate into less cost.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A reversal tolerant anode for a fuel cell which comprises an oxygen evolution reaction catalyst disposed in selected areas of the anode, with only part of the anode structure containing the oxygen evolution reaction catalyst, wherein the selected areas are provided to the surface of the anode according to a predetermined pattern, wherein the predetermined pattern comprises that the selected areas are larger in size the narrower to the anode outlet they are…
