Membrane-electrode assembly, method for producing the same and solid polymer fuel cell

Abstract

A membrane-electrode assembly comprising an anode catalyst layer and cathode catalyst layer placed each other, and a polymer electrolyte membrane formed between the anode catalyst layer and cathode catalyst layer. The polymer electrolyte membrane comprises: a hydrocarbon-based polymer electrolyte, and the anode catalyst layer and cathode catalyst layer both comprise a catalyst-supported material, having at least one catalyst substance selected from among platinum and platinum-containing alloys and a support on which the catalyst substance is supported; and a polymer electrolyte. Either or both the anode catalyst layer and cathode catalyst layer have a catalyst-supporting ratio of 60 wt % or greater in the catalyst-supported material.
