    Abstract: Molten Carbonate Fuel Cell Integral Matrix Tape and Bubble Barrier A molten carbonate fuel cell matrix material is described made up of a matrix tape portion and a bubble barrier portion. The matrix tape portion comprises particles inert to molten carbonate electrolyte, ceramic particles and a polymeric binder, the matrix tape being flexible, pliable and having rubber-like compliance at room temperature. The bubble barrier is a solid material having fine porosity preferably being bonded to the matrix tape. In operation in a fuel cell, the polymer binder burns off leaving the matrix and bubble barrier providing superior sealing, stability and performance properties to the fuel cell stack. C-811

    Abstract: CARBON FOAM FUEL CELL COMPONENTS In an electrochemical cell, such as a fuel cell, the gas distribution layer, which is the layer of material disposed directly behind and contiguous with the catalyst layer, is made from gas porous open cell carbon foam. Vitreous carbon foam is preferred. Vitreous carbon foam is extremely corrosion resistant to many of the very reactive chemicals which might be used as an electrolyte in a fuel cell, such as phosphoric acid. It also has low electrical resistivity, good thermal conductivity, and can be made very thin and inexpensively. Preferably the cell catalyst layer is applied directly to one surface of the foam layer.

    Abstract: ANHYDROUS H2/Cl2 REGENERATIVE FUEL CELL A regenerative fuel cell in which the reactive gases are hydrogen and chlorine and the electrolyte is a conductive anhydrous solvent in which the chlorine gas and the hydrogen chloride gas are soluble, this electrolyte readily releasing the gaseous hydrogen chloride for storage during discharge of the cell.
