20090252932 | ACTINIC ENERGY RAY CURABLE RESION COMPOSITION AND USE THEREOF - An active energy ray-curable resin composition is handleable when it is formed into an uncured film. The resin composition cures quickly, is formable, and can be used to make a hard coat layer with a high hardness. Specifically, the active energy ray-curable resin composition of the present invention contains a vinyl polymer having alkoxysilyl groups in its side chain, along with a photoacid generator. In its uncured state, the active energy ray-curable resin composition has a glass transition temperature of 15° C. to 100° C. 90 mass % or more of the Si-containing compound or Si-containing compound unit present in the active energy ray-curable resin composition is represented by the following structural formula 1: | 10-08-2009 |
20100310965 | MEMBRANE-ELECTRODE ASSEMBLY AND POLYMER ELECTROLYTE FUEL CELL - A membrane-electrode assembly for polymer electrolyte fuel cells comprising a polymer electrolyte membrane and two gas diffusion electrodes being bonded to the membrane so that the membrane can be between them, in which assembly each gas diffusion electrode is comprised of an electrode catalyst layer and a gas diffusion layer, intermediate layer(s) being an ion conductor is/are arranged between the electrode catalyst layer(s) and the membrane, the ion conductor mainly comprises a block copolymer comprising a polymer block (A) having ion-conductive groups and a polymer block (B) having no ion-conductive group, both blocks phase-separate from each other, (A) forms a continuous phase, and the contact part(s) of the intermediate layer(s) with the polymer electrolyte membrane and the contact part(s) of the intermediate layer(s) with the electrode catalyst layer(s) are comprised of polymer block (A) having ion-conductive groups; and a polymer electrolyte fuel cell wherein the assembly is used.

20100323269 | CATALYST LAYER AND PREPARATION PROCESS THEREOF, AND MEMBRANE-ELECTRODE ASSEMBLY AND POLYMER ELECTROLYTE FUEL CELL USING THE CATALYST LAYER - In a membrane-electrode assembly for polymer electrolyte fuel cells comprising a polymer electrolyte membrane and two gas diffusion electrodes being bonded to the membrane so that the membrane can be between them, at least one catalyst layer constituting the gas diffusion electrodes characterized in that the ion-conductive binder comprises a block copolymer having a particle size of 1 μm or less comprising a polymer block (A) having ion-conductive groups and a polymer block (B) having no ion-conductive group, both polymer blocks phase separate from each other, polymer block (A) forms a continuous phase, and the contact parts of the block copolymer with catalyst particles are comprised of polymer block (A) having ion-conductive groups; a membrane-electrode assembly and a polymer electrolyte fuel cell. | 12-23-2010 |
20110300469 | ELECTROLYTE MEMBRANE AND MEMBRANE-ELECTRODE ASSEMBLY - An electrolyte membrane having a structure wherein fine rubber particles having substantially no ion-conducting group and having an average particle size of 20 nm to 1 μm are uniformly dispersed in a matrix including a resin component having ion-conducting group. The electrolyte membrane has high bonding ability to electrodes and does not cause cracks and ruptures because it is kept flexible even under low humid or absolutely dried condition, in addition, shows high ion conductivity even under low humid or absolutely dried condition because the matrix having ion-conducting groups are continuous. | 12-08-2011 |
