20090035617Fuel cell system and method for controlling the same - A control device 02-05-2009
20090162716Method of Manufacturing Fuel Cell - A method of manufacturing a fuel cell is comprising: a hydrogen permeable membrane forming step of forming a second hydrogen permeable membrane on a first hydrogen permeable membrane; and an electrolyte layer forming step of forming an electrolyte layer on the second hydrogen permeable membrane. In this case, it is possible to form the electrolyte layer having few defects. Adhesiveness is therefore improved between the electrolyte layer and the second hydrogen permeable membrane. Accordingly, a separation is restrained between the electrolyte layer and the second hydrogen permeable membrane.06-25-2009
20100047648Hydrogen Separation Membrane with a Carrier, Fuel Cell and Hydrogen Separation Apparatus Having Same, and Method of Manufacturing Same - A method of manufacturing a hydrogen separation membrane with a carrier is characterized by including a first step of providing, between the hydrogen separation membrane and the carrier that supports the hydrogen separation membrane, a low-hardness metal membrane having a hardness that is lower than the hardness of the hydrogen separation membrane, and a second step of joining the hydrogen separation membrane, the low-hardness metal membrane, and the carrier by a cold joining method. In this case, it is possible to suppress the deformation of the hydrogen separation membrane, the low-hardness metal membrane, and the carrier and, as a result, it is possible to prevent damaging of the hydrogen separation membrane. The adhesion of the contact between the hydrogen separation membrane and the carrier is also improved. The result is that it is not necessary to increase the severity of the cold joining conditions.02-25-2010
20100285393Hydrogen-permeable structure, method of manufacturing thereof and fuel cell using the same - Objects of the present invention are to provide a hydrogen-permeable structure having excellent durability, in which adherence between a hydrogen-permeable base and a proton conductive film is excellent, peel-off at an interface thereof is suppressed, and stable performance can be kept for a long time, and to provide a method of manufacturing the hydrogen-permeable structure and a fuel cell having excellent durability, in which the hydrogen-permeable structure is used. The present invention relates to a hydrogen-permeable structure including a hydrogen-permeable base in which a fluctuation range of a d value by X-ray analysis measurement is at most 0.05% in a region within 2 μm deep from a surface, and an oxide proton conductive film formed on a surface thereof, and also relates to a method of manufacturing the hydrogen-permeable structure and a fuel cell using the hydrogen-permeable structure.11-11-2010

20080226951Fuel Cell - A fuel cell includes a joint portion A in which a first conductive separator, an electrolyte-strengthening substrate and a second conductive separator are jointed in order with a brazing material. The electrolyte-strengthening substrate is formed so as to be larger than a joint area of the first conductive separator and a joint area of the second conductive separator in the joint portion. The electrolyte-strengthening substrate has an insulating property at least at an area where the electrolyte-strengthening substrate contacts with the brazing material.09-18-2008
20090200172METHOD OF MANUFACTURING FUEL CELL - A method of manufacturing a fuel cell includes thermally treating a hydrogen permeable membrane in a given temperature higher than an actual operating temperature of the fuel cell, and forming an electrolyte layer on the hydrogen permeable membrane subjected to the thermal treatment. The hydrogen permeable membrane is composed of a polycrystalline metal.08-13-2009
20100021786FUEL CELL - A fuel cell includes a hydrogen permeable metal substrate and an electrolyte layer. The hydrogen permeable metal substrate acts as an anode. The electrolyte layer is provided on the hydrogen permeable metal substrate and has proton conductivity. At least a part of the hydrogen permeable metal substrate is composed of a metal having a recrystallization temperature higher than a given temperature.01-28-2010
