Development of a nanoalloy catalyst for fuel cells

Public research university specializing in technology, science, and engineering, founded in 1829

Education and Research

A catalyst made from a nano-scale alloy, developed using a new production technique that requires less platinum.

Devices that convert chemical energy from a fuel into electricity through an electrochemical reaction, producing minimal emissions.

A thin-film deposition technique used to create the nanometer-thin film of alloy for the new catalysts.

Vehicles powered by fuel cell systems that consume hydrogen to produce electricity. These vehicles operate using electricity generated by the fuel cell system and produce only water vapor and oxygen as byproducts, making them environmentally friendly.
