Problems solved by technology

[0007] Since the PEMFC membrane electrode has a five-layer structure, the preparation process of the membrane electrode is cumbersome, and the contact resistance between the layers in the membrane electrode is increased. During the use of the fuel cell, the catalytic layer and the diffusion layer are easily separated and detached, reducing the membrane. The time stability of the electrode greatly affects the electrochemical performance and life of the fuel cell
In addition, the diffusion layer of the membrane electrode is made of carbon cloth or carbon paper treated with polytetrafluoroethylene PTFE hydrophobicity. Although it can ensure sufficient strength during use, due to the addition of more non-conductive hydrophobic materials, further The resistivity of the diffusion layer is high, the porosity and structure are unreasonable, and there is no directional drainage and gas transmission channel, which affects the performance of the fuel cell

Abstract

This invention discloses a membrane electrode for PEMFC and its preparation method, which is made of three tiers. The middle layer is proton exchange membrane, and the two-side layers are porous cathode and porous anode catalyst-diffusion layer respectively which are both made of the catalyst, slurry and carbon fiber on the outer surface. The membrane electrode of this invention is obtained by using static flocking technology to implant the carbon fiber directly onto PEM with catalyst slurry and then drying. It simplifies the process of membrane electrode, reduces the contact resistance between layers, raises the capability of gas quick spreading and water timely discharge, and improves the electrochemical properties. When the current density is 200mA / cm2, the discharge power of battery increases 14~20%.

Description

Technical field: [0001] The invention relates to a battery electrode and a preparation method thereof, in particular to a membrane electrode for a proton exchange membrane fuel cell and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) is a power generation device that converts hydrogen energy into electrical energy. The PEMFC system consists of the following parts. The electrolyte is a proton exchange membrane (PEM), the catalytic layer (the catalyst is carbon-supported Pt or carbon-supported Pt-Ru alloy), and the bipolar plate (graphite or surface modification with gas and water flow channels). permanent metal plate). Because the chemical energy is directly converted into electrical energy, it is not limited by the Carnot thermal cycle, so the energy conversion efficiency is high, about 60%, which is 2 to 3 times that of the internal combustion engine; and the working current is large and the specific power is high. In...
