  • Publication number: 20170174800
    Abstract: A partially quaternized styrene-based polymer contains given amounts of a constituent unit having a quaternary salt type anion-exchange group and a constituent unit having a haloalkyl group. Due to the polymer, the ionic conductivity and the gas diffusion properties are kept high and the swelling of the electrode catalyst layer in a post-crosslinking step can be minimized to form a highly active catalytic electrode layer and obtain an excellent fuel-cell output.
