Abstract

PURPOSE:To reduce the danger of ignition at the mixing time of a catalyst and a solvent, by preliminarily adding a small amount of water to the catalyst to wet the same and adding a water-soluble org. solvent to the wetted catalyst to mix and disperse the solvent. CONSTITUTION:After water is preliminarily added to a catalyst to wet the same, a water-soluble org. solvent is added to and mixed with the wetted catalyst to obtain a dispersion. For example, 100-200g of water containing 0.5-5% of a surfactant is added to and mixed with 100g of a carbon powder (catalyst) supporting fine particles of platinum in a ratio of 10%. Next, 300-700g of ethylene glycol is added to the dispersion to be quickly and uniformly mixed therewith and subsequently dispersed by a roll mill dispersing machine to obtain an ethylene glycol dispersed paste of a platinum/carbon powder. By this method, the danger of ignition can be reduced to 1/3-1/5.

In order to carry out this electrochemical reaction efficiently,
The catalyst in the electrode catalyst layer, which consists of a catalyst on which fine metal particles have been deposited and a fluororesin, is made fine, and the so-called catalyst layer is made so that the catalyst (solid phase), the reaction residue (gas phase), and the electrolyte (liquid phase) come into contact with each other. 3-phase interface 81/Furuyazuko is necessary.

In addition, in order to make this finely divided catalyst into an electrode layer with many three-layer interfaces, a catalyst that is easily wetted by the electrolytic solution and a fluororesin that is not easily wetted by the electrolytic solution are uniformly dispersed.

The key is to maintain a good balance between the electrolyte and the waste. In this step, when dispersing the catalyst, an organic solvent is used in terms of dispersibility and coatability when forming the catalyst layer, especially when dispersion (a fluororesin dispersed in a water-soluble dispersion medium) is used as the fluororesin. A water-bathable organic solvent is used.

However, since a finely divided catalyst has a large surface area and a high catalytic effect, when trying to disperse the catalyst in an organic solvent (in this case, a water-soluble organic solvent), sufficient contact with air is required at the initial stage of mixing the solvent and catalyst. Since this is carried out, there is a problem in that the organic solvent reacts with oxygen in the air due to the action of the catalyst and tends to spontaneously burn.

Therefore, in the past, when the catalyst and solvent were mixed, a cooled solvent was used, and the catalyst and solvent contacting body was
(by mixing quickly to wet the entire catalyst with solvent),
Ignition was prevented by lowering the degree of contact between the catalyst, solvent, and air, and by increasing heat conduction throughout the catalyst. However, when the amount of catalyst increases, it is difficult to uniformly mix all the catalyst in a short period of time, so there is a problem that the risk of ignition is still high.
