Outline of Research at the Start

本研究では、双連続キュービック液晶が形成する三次元連続性を持った立方周期ナノ構造(ジャイロイド構造)の利用に着目した。このナノ構造を利用して、『三次元の連続性を有する燃料ガス輸送チャンネル』と『三次元の連続性を有するプロトン伝導界面』を同一立方格子内に創る革新的技術を開発し、燃料ガス輸送相と電解質輸送相を同一の擬似一次相内に融合することを目指す。更に、電極上の白金触媒表面をこのような擬似一次相で覆うことで、白金ナノ粒子の表面全体を反応活性点に変換する方法論を開発し、燃料電池デバイスの革新を目指す。

Outline of Final Research Achievements

Fuel cell devices that convert hydrogen into energy are a key technology in building a hydrogen society. In order to create an excellent fuel cell, it is important to design each of the fuel cell components such as electrodes, electrolytes, separators, and catalysts, but it is also extremely important to control the interface of these components. In particular, the interface where all three phases (fuel phase/electrolyte phase/catalyst phase) come into contact is called three-phase interface, which functions as a reaction active site. It is important to expand the three-phase interface in the system for improving power generation efficiency. In this research, we attempted to create a material that contributes to the expansion of the three-phase interface by utilizing the unique three-dimensional gyroid nano-structure.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

三相界面をこのような設計で拡大しようとする試みは世界的にも類を見ず、極めて独創的である。この研究が成功すれば、燃料電池の触媒であり希少金属であるプラチナの必要量を大幅に減少させることができ、水素社会の構築に強く貢献する技術として期待できる。
