| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Fuel cell system needs a lot of amount of platinum to prepare electrode its catalyst. However, platinum is very expensive and it is dwindling natural resources. Therefore, the development of the electrode catalyst without including platinum is strongly required. Here, we have developed the electrode catalyst by preparation of carbide or boride of Co or Ni nanoparticles, which are expected to show catalytic activity as electrode of fuel cell. By using liquid phase synthesis method, we succeeded in preparation of Ni-B, Ni-C, Co-B, and Co-C nanoparticles. They showed electrode catalytic activity on oxygen reduction reaction. Especially, carbide nanoparticles showed higher activity.
