Abstract

The invention provides a method for preparing a direct liquid fuel cell membrane electrode. The method comprises the following steps: mixing a Nafion solution, an alcohols solvent and water with a catalyst, then spraying the mixture onto a transfer membrane to form a catalyst layer, transferring onto a Nafion membrane so as to finally obtain the membrane electrode. The volume VNafion of the Nafion solution meets the formula as follows: VNafion=pl*m carrying capacity*S / (p2*Omega *p3*a). Compared with the prior art, the method is characterized in that a certain proportion between volumes of catalyst particles and Nafion particles is analyzed from microscopic view according to the carrying capacity of the catalyst of unit area of the membrane electrode, so that the volume of the Nafion solution meets the specified condition, the coating of the Nafion solution to the catalyst is reduced, the utilization rate of the catalyst in the catalyst layer is increased, and the electrochemical performance of a cell is improved. In addition, the catalyst layer is transferred onto the Nafion membrane with a transfer method, so that the combinability of the catalyst layer and the Nafion membrane can be improved, and therefore the resistance of the cell is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of fuel cells, in particular to a method for preparing membrane electrodes of direct liquid fuel cells. Background technique [0002] A fuel cell is a power generation device that converts chemical energy directly into electrical energy through an electrochemical reaction. Compared with traditional energy conversion systems, fuel cells have many advantages, such as: not limited by the Carnot cycle, high energy conversion efficiency; the product is usually water, and has little environmental pollution. Therefore, fuel cells have received increasing attention in recent years. [0003] A direct liquid fuel cell is a device that generates electricity through liquid fuels such as methanol, ethanol, formic acid, etc. through a membrane electrode composed of a proton exchange membrane and a catalyst electrode. Taking a direct methanol battery as an example, its working principle is as follows: [0004] Anode reac...
