Zusammenfassung:	The present invention relates to a catalyst for solid polymer fuel cells in which catalyst particles including platinum are supported on a carbon powder carrier. The invention provides a catalyst for solid polymer fuel cells in which the ratio of zerovalent platinum to platinum present on the surfaces of the catalyst particles is 80% or more and 100% or less. In the platinum catalyst, excellent durability is exhibited in an environment of operating a solid polymer fuel cell, and the amount of platinum eluted at the time of immersing the catalyst in a predetermined sulfuric acid solution is lower as compared to conventional platinum catalysts. The invention provides a catalyst for solid polymer fuel cells excellent in both initial activity and durability.
