A catalyst which is suitable for use in an anode of a fuel cell. The catalyst comprises, in at least partially reduced form, (i) nickel and (ii) molybdenum and, optionally, (iii) rhenium and/or (iv) at least one transition metal which is different from nickel, molybdenum and rhenium, supported on (v) electrically conductive carbon modified with one or more elements selected from the lanthanides, yttrium, tin and titanium. The weight ratio (i):((ii)+(iii)+(iv)) is at least 2:1.

Nickel-based catalyst for fuel cell anode

The invention relates to a catalyst which is suitable for use in an anode of a fuel cell. The catalyst comprises (i) nickel metal and (ii) at least one metal selected from transition metals and may optionally also comprise (iii) at least one metal selected from alkaline earth metals. Metals (i), (ii) and, if present, (iii) are supported on (iv) a finely divided electrically conductive carrier. The weight ratio (i):((ii)+(iii)) is at least 3:1.
