Embodiment Construction

[0026] Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0027] to combine figure 1 The present embodiment will be described. This embodiment consists of proton exchange membrane 1, anode diffusion layer (comprising anode support layer 2 and anode microporous layer 3), anode catalyst layer 4, cathode diffusion layer (comprising cathode support layer 5 and cathode microporous layer 6), cathode catalyst layer 7; wherein the cathode catalytic layer 7 is arranged on the right side of the proton exchange membrane, and is composed of a three-layer structure with a gradient distribution of water absorption properties. The cathode catalytic layer closest to the proton exchange membrane has the highest superabsorbent nanoparticle content and the least catalyst content. The content of Nafion resin is the highest; the right side of the cathode catalytic layer 7 is the cathode microporous layer 6 and the cath...

Abstract

The invention provides a passive miniature methanol fuel cell membrane electrode and its preparation method. The passive miniature methanol fuel cell membrane electrode is composed of a proton exchange membrane, an anode diffusion layer, an anode catalysis layer, a cathode diffusion layer and a cathode catalysis layer, wherein the cathode catalysis layer is composed of three-layer of superabsorbent nano particles in gradient distribution. The preparation method of the membrane electrode comprises the preparation of the cathode diffusion layer and the anode diffusion layer, the preparation of the anode catalysis layer, the preparation of the cathode catalysis layer and the process of forming membrane electrode by hot pressing. The passive miniature methanol fuel cell membrane electrode of the invention is capable of increasing the volumetric specific energy of a monomer battery, reducing the watered-out degree of the cathode, enhancing the mass transfer of oxygen, raising the power density and the discharge stability of the miniature methanol fuel cell. The invention has the advantages of convenient and rapid operation and easy control.
