- a 5 wt% naphthion (registered trademark) solution was applied to the catalyst structure formed on the carbon paper, and then dried to form a catalyst layer on the carbon paper.
- carbon paper with a catalyst layer is placed on both sides of a solid polymer electrolyte membrane (film thickness: 175 ⁇ ) made of naphthion (registered trademark) so that the catalyst layer is in contact with the membrane electrode by hot pressing.
- a joined body was produced.
- the membrane electrode assembly was assembled in a test cell (EF C25-01SP) manufactured by Electrochem to produce a fuel cell.
- the voltage-current characteristics of the fuel cell were measured under the conditions of hydrogen 300 cc / min, oxygen 300 cc / min, cell temperature 80 ° C., and humidification temperature 80 ° C. ⁇ ⁇ ⁇
- the results are shown in Fig. 4 along with the results of the products sold. As a result, it was confirmed that the same level of performance as a commercial product could be obtained.
