Title: Production and characterization of non-platinum catalytic materials formed by ion implantation. Annual report, November 1, 1986-October 31, 1987

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5072981

Catalytic activity for oxygen-ion production in a phosphoric acid fuel cell was observed with electrodes prepared with nitrogen ion-implanted carbon blacks. These electrodes were prepared without the addition of any metals, and especially without platinum. Comparisons to electrodes prepared with platinum and metal-ion implants is presented. Methods of preparation and measurement are discussed.
