This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project seeks to reduce the cost of fuelcell electrodes by preparing a novel class of oxygen reduction electrocatalysts featuringhigh activity, low cost, and greater longevity. The basis of this catalyst is a novelmultimetallic catalyst. The result of this effort will be an electrocatalyst suitable for usein the fuel cells envisoned for next generation vehicles (NGVs), as well as fixed fuel cellsfor commercial power generation.This research will advance the understanding of electrocatalysis, extending the world ofknown catalytic materials, and providing further opportunities for research. This willalso provide opportunities for teaching, training, and learning. Additionally, thetechnological fruits of the project will benefit society by reducing pollution from fossil fuelsources. Finally, society will benefit economically from the elimination of costlyplatinum from fuel cells.

这个小企业创新研究（SBIR）第一阶段项目旨在通过制备一类新型的氧还原电催化剂来降低燃料电池电极的成本，该催化剂具有高活性，低成本和更长的寿命。该催化剂的基础是一种新型的多金属催化剂。这一努力的结果将是一种适用于下一代汽车（NGV）燃料电池的电催化剂，以及用于商业发电的固定燃料电池。这项研究将促进对电催化的理解，扩展已知催化材料的世界，并提供进一步的研究机会。这也将为教学、培训和学习提供机会。此外，该项目的技术成果将通过减少化石燃料源的污染而造福社会。最后，社会将从燃料电池中消除昂贵的铂中获得经济利益。
