Abstract

The invention discloses a fuel cell ordered porous nano-fiber single electrode, a membrane electrode and a preparation method. Polymer nano-fibers are deposited on one side of a gaseous diffusion material through an electro-spinning technology; metal nanoparticles with catalytic activity are deposited on the surfaces of the polymer nano-fibers by using magnetron sputtering and vacuum evaporation methods, or catalyst slurry is directly sprayed to one side of a nano-fiber thin film to form a porous single electrode; then two single electrodes and a layer of proton exchange membrane are combined into a three-in-one membrane electrode. The fuel cell ordered porous nano-fiber single electrode, the membrane electrode and the preparation method have the beneficial effects that the conventional micro-porous layer is substituted by the nano-fiber layer with high porosity and high specific surface area, prepared by electro-spinning, so that the catalytic activity area is increased and the three-phase reaction interface and the mass transfer are facilitated, and an active metal catalytic layer formed by magnetron sputtering and vacuum evaporation has high adhesion, is uniform in coating and has controllable thickness, so that the using amount of the active metal catalyst is reduced and the utilization rate of the catalyst is also greatly increased.
