Embodiment 1

[0152] The microporous part [A] of Example 1 is made using a screen plate, and it is formed into a grid shape consisting of straight lines with a line width of 0.5 mm and a line interval of 0.7 mm ( figure 1 The pattern represented by the lattice shape). Others were the same as the methods described in and to obtain a gas diffusion electrode substrate. When the area ratio of the micropore portion [A] of this gas diffusion electrode substrate was measured, the area ratio was 66%. As a result of evaluating the power generation performance of this gas diffusion electrode base material, the clogging resistance was extremely good. The output voltage is 0.35V (operating temperature is 65°C, humidification temperature is 70°C, current density is 2.2A / cm 2 ), critical temperature is 91°C (humidification temperature is 70°C, current density is 1.2A / cm 2 ), as recorded in Table 1, both overflow resistance and dry-out resistance are good. In addition, the coating speed of the carb...

Embodiment 2

[0154] The microporous portion [A] of Example 2 was produced using a screen plate to form a grid-like pattern consisting of straight lines with a line width of 0.1 mm and a line interval of 1.8 mm. Others were the same as the methods described in and to obtain a gas diffusion electrode substrate. When the area ratio of the micropore portion [A] of the gas diffusion electrode substrate was measured, the area ratio was 10%. As a result of evaluation of the power generation performance of this gas diffusion electrode base material, the clogging resistance was good. The output voltage is 0.38V (operating temperature is 65°C, humidification temperature is 70°C, current density is 2.2A / cm 2 ), critical temperature is 90°C (humidification temperature is 70°C, current density is 1.2A / cm 2 ), as recorded in Table 1, both overflow resistance and dry-out resistance are good.

Embodiment 3

[0156] The microporous portion [A] of Example 3 was produced using a screen plate to form a grid-like pattern consisting of straight lines with a line width of 0.5 mm and a line interval of 2 mm. Others were the same as the methods described in and to obtain a gas diffusion electrode substrate. When the area ratio of the microporous portion [A] of this gas diffusion electrode substrate was measured, the area ratio was 36%. As a result of evaluating the power generation performance of this gas diffusion electrode base material, the clogging resistance was extremely good. The output voltage is 0.38V (operating temperature is 65°C, humidification temperature is 70°C, current density is 2.2A / cm 2 ), critical temperature is 92°C (humidification temperature is 70°C, current density is 1.2A / cm 2 ), as recorded in Table 1, both overflow resistance and dry-out resistance are good.
