The feature of the process for ultra-low
alloy catalyst loading
electrode according this invention is to reduce its
alloy formation period of aging process subsequent to
hydrogen reduction process of catalyst ions after
ion exchange process of their ions and
proton in the cluster of the
polymer electrolyte on the surface of the carbon
powder. The process is able to drastically shorten the aging time with temperature rise beyond 200° C. up to 400° C. under
hydrogen atmosphere for the formation of Pt—Ru
binary alloy for example catalyst by the additional processes of pre-treatment of K+, Na+, Li+, Rb+, Cs+, Mg2+, Ca2+, Ba2+, Fe2+, Sr2+, Ra2+, Cu2+, Ag+, Zn2+, Ni2+, and Co2+ ions substitution for
proton before the
hydrogen reduction process. More preference, the further post-treatment of K+, Na+, Li+, Rb+, Cs+, Mg2+, Ca2+, Ba2+, Fe2+, Sr2+, Ra2+, Cu2+, Ag+, Zn2+, Ni2+, and Co2+ ions substitution for
proton before the
ion exchange process. This new process is little harmful to the CO tolerance performance of PEFC.
