Anode for Molten Carbonate Fuel Cell Coated by Porous Ceramic Films

摘要

The present invention provides an anode for a Molten Carbonate Fuel Cell (MCFC) and a MCFC including the same, particularly an anode for the MCFC coated by a porous ceramic film, when the invention is used, the wettability of the anode to the molten carbonate used as the electrolyte for the MCFC and the amount of impregnated electrolyte will be greatly improved, and thus is very useful in viewpoint that it can prevent any electrolyte loss that is often observed in the long periods of operation of the MCFC, and maintain a high stability of the cell for an extended period of time, compared with the conventional cell. Also, the present invention itself is applicable to an electrode made of Ni-based alloys or metal compounds, which is expected to be competent MCFC materials nowadays, as well as the electrode made of Ni, Ni-Cr and Ni-Al alloy used in the present invention.
