;
Research is described on electrocatalysis of fuel cell reactions including the topics (1) mixed oxides as oxygen electrodes, (2) electrolyte effects on the oxygen reduction reaction, (3) anion effects on the oxygen reduction reaction, and (4) selection and evaluation of electrocatalysts for oxygen reduction in KHCO/sub 3//K/sub 2/CO/sub 3/ buffered electrolytes. Phosphoric acid fuel cell studies include inhibition of sintering of fuel cell catalyst particles: electrochemical methods for surface regeneration and temperature effects on the oxygen reduction reaction at platinum in phosphoric acid electrolyte. Research on the characterization of overpotentials of solid electrolyte fuel cells and selection and evaluation of interconnector materials for solid electrolyte fuel cells is summarized. (WHK)
