CATALYST FOR FUEL CELL - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18180911 titled 'CATALYST FOR FUEL CELL

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a catalyst for a fuel cell that consists of a carbon support with micropores and a metal supported on the carbon. The metal can be platinum or a platinum alloy. The carbon support has a specific surface area between 250 m/g-carbon and 338 m/g-carbon, and the micropore area is between 48 m/g-carbon and 74 m/g-carbon.

Original Abstract Submitted

A catalyst for a fuel cell includes a carbon support including a micropore, and a metal supported on the carbon support. The metal is at least one of platinum and a platinum alloy, a specific surface area of the carbon support is 250 m/g-carbon or more and 338 m/g-carbon or less, and an area of the micropore of the carbon support is 48 m/g-carbon or more and 74 m/g-carbon or less.
