Electrochemical device using solid polymer electrolytic film

Abstract

The object of the present invention is to provide a thin and light electrochemical device using a solid polymer electrolytic film, which is capable of maintaining its steady performance for a long time even at a high humidity condition and a process for preparing the same. The device comprises inserting and pressuring the jointed electrochemical device 10 between a pair of pressing plates 30 and 31, wherein the jointed electrochemical device 10 is obtained by jointing the anode and the cathode having a catalytic layer on a base substrate of conductive porous material to both sides of the solid polymer electrolytic film, and wherein the pressing plates have the opening part having an area smaller than an electrochemical reaction part formed by facing the anode and the cathode.
