Development of Automotive Fuel-Cell Catalyst Supports

「In particular, inquiries about nano-bead ceramics from markets outside the fuel-cell and water-electrolysis fields that had previously been the target markets are increasing, and studies toward commercialization are gathering pace.」

「In particular, inquiries about nano-bead ceramics are increasing from markets outside the fuel-cell and water-electrolysis fields that had previously been the target markets, and efforts toward commercialization are beginning to accelerate.」

「In particular, our proprietary nano-bead ceramics, developed through industry-academia collaboration, have received high marks from related markets such as fuel cells and water electrolysis. We have undertaken 4 research projects commissioned by NEDO and are moving from the experimental stage toward studies at the mass-production level for practical application.」

「From a medium- to long-term perspective, we are also developing highly distinctive and competitive products such as nano-bead ceramics for the hydrogen production and fuel-cell fields, which are attracting attention amid the recent trend toward decarbonization.」

「As a medium- to long-term issue, we are studying an automotive fuel-cell catalyst support featuring a ceramic nano-bead structure that could dramatically improve fuel-cell performance, leveraging open innovation, and aim to establish mass-production technology for these products.」

「We began developing automotive fuel-cell catalyst supports featuring a ceramic nanobead structure made from metal soaps based on our proprietary technologies through open innovation.」
