Abstract
The effects of various parameters in preparing Raney-Ni/PTFE anodes fo r alkaline fuel-cells are investigated. A partial factorial experiment design (2(5-1)) analysis reveals that the important parameters are PT FE content and milling time, and their interaction. Thus, one paramete r at a time is varied to study its effect on electrode performance. El ectrodes prepared with 8 wt.% PTFE and with milling for 60 s exhibit t he best performance.
