FUEL CELL
DRIVE
November 16, 2017
A fuel cell includes: an electrolyte membrane; an anode catalyst layer; a cathode catalyst layer; and a cathode gas diffusion layer. The cathode catalyst layer includes an ionomer, the ionomer includes copolymers each of which has a hydrophilic block. The hydrophilic block is positioned at a terminal of a copolymer which includes a hydrophobic portion and a hydrophilic portion having a sulfonic acid group. The hydrophilic block has an aggregated structure of the hydrophilic portion. A gas diffusion resistance coefficient of the cathode gas diffusion layer is 3.2×10m or lower. The gas diffusion resistance coefficient is expressed by “Gas Diffusion Resistance Coefficient=Thickness of Cathode Gas Diffusion Layer/(Porosity of Cathode Gas Diffusion Layer)”.
