Ballard Joins With Johnson Matthey on Catalyst Development. Ballard Power Systems has signed a long-term agreement with Johnson Matthey for the joint development and supply of catalysts and catalyst containing products for Ballard's fuel cells. This agreement follows an earlier collaboration between the two companies, and makes Johnson Matthey Ballard's major supplier of catalysts for its fuel cell products. (November 1998, fuelcells.org

Thanks for the links to the site Chuc, not much has changed in the PGE market. The fundamentals remain quite bullish. Ron

I called the company, they are not public yet but interesting, even tho noy near me assuch they do have a nice product that improves economy ( under the hood installation - DIY type) and it is on sale tilfriday for $99 then up to regualar price $189 and needs to be re purchased every 30,000 miles so it seems an interesting Liquid Mist Platinium innovation: nationalfuelsaver.com see their number there Less Gas I love it. I better stop now. Chuca P.S. - I Love Rhoadislandism: How is the Platinum/Rhodium Technology able to reduce siniu'Ltaneou5lv the HC and Co so significantly And why cannot the combustion of the gasoline and air do it by itself? The problem is that under the ordinary gasoline engine conditions, only about 80% of the O2 molecules go to the radical state of O2. And only, radical oxygen O2 can oxidize. 02 cannot oxidize. Therefore, after the formation of the H 2 0 and CO, there is only enough 0= remaining to oxidize about 55% of the CO to CO2. The Co that does not oxidize to CO 2 appears as 5% to 6% of CO in the exhaust gases. Reducing CO. Means oxidizing more Co to C02 Excess air may be added to the combustion chamber to get more radical oxygen, 0= available to oxidize the CO to CO2 And this can reduce the CO to 3% or 1% or even less. However, this excess air does not reduce total unburned fuel (pollution), because the extra air inside the combustion chamber is parasitic and cools the flame. And as the temperature etc) fewer hydrocarbons (HC) crack, raising HC in the exhaust gases,..>>
