  • Patent number: 9325015
    Abstract: A reaction layer for a fuel cell, which is interposed between a solid electrolyte membrane and a diffusion layer in the fuel cell, the reaction layer including a first layer that is in contact with the solid electrolyte membrane, a second layer that is in contact with the diffusion layer; and an intermediate layer that is interposed between the first layer and the second layer, wherein the first layer and the second layer have a catalyst supported by an electrically conductive support, and the intermediate layer has no catalyst.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 29, 2010
    Date of Patent: April 26, 2016
    Assignee: KABUSHIKIKAISHA EQUOS RESEARCH
    Inventors: Motohiro Ohtsuka, Hidemi Katou, Taizou Yamamoto

  • Patent number: 6337378
    Abstract: The present invention is a process for producing a polyvinyl chloride paste blending resin comprising polymerizing a vinyl chloride-based monomer by a suspension polymerization in an aqueous medium, wherein as a suspending agent, both (A) and (B) are used in a mixing weight ratio (A)/(B) of 99/1 to 50/50, and a total amount of said (A) and said (B) is 0.1 to 1.0 part by weight based on 100 parts by weight of the vinyl chloride-based monomer, said (A) being a partially hydrolyzed water-soluble poly(vinyl alcohol) having a viscosity at 20° C. of 4% aqueous solution by weight of 20 to 110 cps and the degree of hydrolysis of 86 to 99 mol %, and said (B) being a partially hydrolyzed water-soluble poly (vinyl alcohol) having a viscosity at 20° C. of 4% aqueous solution by weight of 5 to 10 cps and the degree of hydrolysis of 70 to 80 mol %.
