The invention relates to the field of preparation of diaphragms for
hydrogen production through
alkaline water electrolysis, and discloses a preparation method of a polyphenylene
sulfide filament
fiber diaphragm for
hydrogen production through an
alkaline water electrolysis tank. The preparation method comprises the following steps: melting polyphenylene
sulfide resin to prepare filament fibers, carrying out
yarn steaming, plying and plied
yarn steaming on the filament fibers, weaving the filament fibers into
plain weave diaphragm base cloth, and carrying out sulfonation, hot rolling shaping and other processes to prepare the polyphenylene
sulfide filament
fiber diaphragm. The polyphenylene sulfide filament
fiber used in the invention can provide high
mechanical strength for the diaphragm, and can optimize the pore structure and aperture of the diaphragm; the hydrophilic performance of the diaphragm can be remarkably improved through sulfonation treatment, so that the surface resistance and the
electrolysis energy consumption of the diaphragm are reduced; the hot rolling shaping treatment can improve the
air tightness of the diaphragm and reduce the thickness of the diaphragm. Therefore, the prepared diaphragm is high in
mechanical strength, free of hairiness, high in
porosity, uniform in
pore diameter, good in hydrophilicity, low in surface resistance, high in
air tightness and good in hot alkali durability, and the preparation method is simple and good in economical efficiency.
