Zusammenfassung: | A liquid fuel composition useful for catalytic fuel cells is made up of at least two components. The primary fuel component is a surface-active compound, such as methanol, that is a source of and acts to prevent unwanted decomposition of the auxiliary fuel. The auxiliary fuel is a compound having a standard reduction potential more negative than the reduction potential of hydrogen gas, which serves as a source of energy and serves to catalyze the catalytic oxidation of the primary fuel. |
