According to one embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a gas adsorption sheet for a secondary battery, including: a heat-resistant base material; and a gas adsorption layer arranged on at least one surface of the heat-resistant base material, wherein the gas adsorption layer contains: a binder resin; and gas adsorbent particles each of which is formed of an inorganic porous material having pores, and is capable of adsorbing a gas.

Abstract: A metal electrolytic capacitor capable of quickly absorbing and immobilizing a belching vapor of a driving electrolyte and widely reducing leakage when an explosion-proof valve operates. An aluminum electrolytic capacitor body is configured by housing a capacitor element in a cylindrical aluminum case, a pair of leads extend from the capacitor body, an explosion-proof valve. is formed on a top panel portion of the metal case, a cylindrical cap as a casing is attached from above to the capacitor body, a plurality of small openings are formed on a top panel portion (bottom portion) of the cap, and an absorbent or a mixture of an absorbent and a water molecular compound wrapped in a permeable fiber material, such as unwoven fabric and filter paper, is placed in a space between the cap and the top panel portion of the capacitor body.

Abstract: A fuel cartridge has a pair of flat faces in which holes are formed. A net is stretched within the holes, and solid methanol is packed inside the fuel cartridge. A fuel cell unit, shaped as a flat box, comprises a pair of flat wall portions, a pair of long-side wall portions, and a pair of short-side wall portions. Each flat wall portion is provided with two MEAs-4, as fuel cells that are arranged so that the fuel electrodes (not shown) face inward. One of the long-side wall portions has an opening provided with, on the edge thereof, an elastic packing serving as a sealing member. An opening and closing lid is pivotably provided to the opening by a pivot as a pivot member. The resulting reduced size methanol fuel cell system has sufficient air-tightness and good power generation efficiency, and is simple in structure.

Abstract: A fuel cell comprises a fuel electrode, an electrolyte membrane and an air electrode 4. The fuel electrode and the air electrode 4 are electrically connected by way of an electric circuit L. A solid-state methanol storage container serving as a fuel container is disposed in the vicinity of the fuel cell on the side of the fuel electrode. The storage container comprises a rectangular box-like casing, the interior of which is packed with solid-state methanol. An opening serving as an air-permeable portion is formed on the lower face side of the storage container. By dividing the opening by a synthetic resin mesh, which is a permeable material, the solid-state methanol is held with secured air permeability. The resulting direct methanol fuel cell system uses extremely safe solid-state methanol in a fuel cartridge.

Abstract: A direct methanol fuel cell system comprises a fuel storage portion that stores solid-state methanol resulting from making methanol into a solid state, a fuel cell, and carrier gas circulation means. The fuel storage portion is provided with a carrier gas supply path communicating with the carrier gas circulation means and a fuel gas flow path 4 communicating with a fuel electrode side of the fuel cell, while the fuel cell is provided with a circulation flow path communicating with the carrier gas circulation means. When a carrier gas is supplied by the carrier gas circulation means into the fuel storage portion via the carrier gas supply path, a fuel gas is supplied to a fuel electrode and is refluxed thereafter towards the carrier gas circulation means. The resulting direct methanol fuel cell system uses extremely safe solid-state methanol in a fuel cartridge.
