Patent ID: 11990627

Abstract:
The carrier metal catalyst achieves suppression of internal resistance of a fuel cell. A carrier metal catalyst includes: a carrier powder; and metal fine particles supported on the carrier powder; wherein: the carrier powder is an aggregates of carrier fine particles; the carrier fine particles includes a chained portion structured by a plurality of crystallites being fusion bonded to form a chain; the carrier fine particles include titanium oxide; the carrier fine particles are doped with an element having a valence different from a valence of titanium; the titanium oxide of the carrier powder has an anatase phase/rutile phase ratio of 0.2 or lower; the metal fine particles have a mean particle size of 3 to 10 nm; the metal fine particles include platinum; and a cell resistance measured under standard conditions of a fuel cell prepared using the carrier metal catalyst is 0.090 Ωcm·2 or lower.
