Abstract: A sealing technique is provided for forming complex and multiple seal configurations for fuel cells and other electrochemical cells. To provide a seal, for sealing chambers for oxidant, fuel and/or coolant, a groove network is provided extending through the various elements of the fuel cell assembly. A source of seal material is then connected to an external filling port and injected into the groove network, and the seal material is then cured to form the seal. There is thus formed a "seal in place", that is robust and can accommodate variations in tolerances and dimensions, and that can be bonded, where possible, to individual elements of the fuel cell assembly. This avoids the difficulty, labor intensive cost and complexity of manually assembling many individual gaskets into complex groove shapes and the like. The seal material can be selected to be comparable with a wide variety of gases, liquid coolants and the like.

Abstract: An electrode for a solid polymer fuel cell includes a gas diffusion layer, an
electrode catalyst layer disposed between a solid polymer membrane of the fuel cell
and the gas diffusion layer, and a water-holding layer disposed between the gas
diffusion layer and the electrode catalyst layer. Under high-relative humidity
conditions of reaction gases, flooding can be prevented because the electrode catalyst
layer is made porous, while under low-relative humidity conditions of reaction gases,
sufficient water contents can be stably provided thanks to the water-holding layer so
that proton conductivity of the solid polymer membrane can be maintained
appropriately. Consequently, high-performance and high-durability electrode and
membrane electrode assembly for a solid polymer fuel cell can be provided such that
the performance and the durability thereof are not affected by change in relative
humidity in reactant gases supplied to the solid polymer fuel cell.

Abstract: A batch sheet feeder (14) has an upstream first conveyor section (34) arranged to convey sheets
singly in a downstream direction to a downstream second conveyor section (40). The second
conveyor section (40) has an upper second conveying section and a lower second conveying
section forming a gap therebetween. The gap is largest at an upstream end of the second
conveyor section (40) and diminishes in size toward a downstream end of the second conveyor
section (40). A gate (62) positioned proximate the downstream end of the second conveyor section (40)
selectively blocks sheets fed along the second conveyor section (40). In another embodiment,
the sheet feeder has a sheet conveyor, sheet sensor (86), and visual attribute sensor (82). The visual
attribute sensor (82) has a field of view covering an area of the conveyor at a certain downstream
location so as to sense an area of any sheet on the conveyor at this downstream location.
The visual attribute sensor (82) can compare a sensed area of a sheet at the downstream location
with a stored visual attribute. In this way, where the sheets of a batch are different, the
visual attribute sensor (82) can be used to verify that a sheet of a batch has visual characteristics
matching those of the expected sheet at that ordinal position in the batch. This assists in
ensuring a batch is not faulty. In a related method of verifying batches of sheets, for each
sheet at a given ordinal position in each batch a visual attribute measure for at least an area
of the sheet is obtained. A comparison is made of the visual attribute measure with a stored
visual attribute measure. Each batch is selectively verified based on this comparison.

Abstract: A laboratory process involves parallel testing and determination of physical-chemical properties of solids under reaction conditions. The solids are present as bulk solids or individually-shaped substances in several parallel reaction channels, through which flows a fluid medium. The solids are pre-heated in the channels using a reactant fluid delivered at a regulated speed.  Preferred Features: The physical-chemical properties are determined by monitoring the condition of a uniform group of the solids within and along the channel, or a single solid. The vertical channels are externally straddled by height-variable sensors either side of the transparent channel sidewalls. Gas emanating from the channel may be sampled by a probe which is inserted into the channel and positioned as required in the x, y, and z axes. The fluid reactant is pre-heated to a temperature preferably 10 - 40% above that of the solid material test temperature or working temperature. In the case of exothermic or autothermal reactions, prior to its introduction, the fluid is brought to a temperature which is 10 - 70% below that of the test temperature or working temperature for the solid in question.  An Independent claim is included for an assembly for use in the above method.

Abstract: The capacitive structure comprises two electrodes (31,45) wherein one electrode (31) comprises a set of strips (25,26) superimposed and displaced one from another with respect to a central trunk, and the other electrode (45) comprises two sets of strips (40,41) which are inserted between the strips (25,26) of the first electrode (31). The strips (40,41) of each set are linked by a common wall (42,43), and the two common walls (42,43) are linked by a transverse part (44) above the first electrode (31) and forming a connection pad for the second electrode (45).  The two electrodes (31,45) are separated by a dielectric layer implemented on the basis of materials chosen from the group comprising ferroelectric and/or pyroelectric oxides. The dielectric layer is implemented by a superimposition of elementary layers of different materials forming a nano laminated structure, and the stoichiometry of the materials varies from one elementary layer to another. The surface of each electrode (31,45) is covered with a layer of a material which is a barrier to the diffusion of oxygen. The different strips (25,26,40,41) of each electrode are made of the same material, in particular of copper. The method (claimed) for the manufacturing of capacitive structure of the electronic micro component (claimed) comprises the steps of depositing a metallic layer so to define a channel, depositing a metallic layer in the formed channel, repeating the two preceding steps with displacing the position of the structuring layer so to cover only a part of adjacent metallic layer, depositing a dielectric layer above the first electrode, and depositing a conducting material with inserting between the metallic layers of the first electrode so to form the second electrode.
