Problems solved by technology

However, when the traditional chlor-alkali ion membrane is used in the oxygen cathode chlor-alkali process, there are some insurmountable defects: since the membrane itself has no catalytic function, oxygen will not react on the surface of the ion membrane even if it is fully contacted, but can only The catalytic electrode surface and accessories of the cell react, which increases the reaction resistance to a certain extent, increases the cell voltage and reduces the catalytic efficiency at the same time

Abstract

The invention relates to an ion exchange membrane for superhigh-current-density oxygen cathode electrolysis and a preparation method thereof. The ion exchange membrane is a multilayer composite film composed of a perfluorocarboxylic acid ion exchange resin layer, a carbon-nanotube-containing perfluorosulfonic acid ion exchange resin layer, a reinforcing mesh, a sulfonic acid side gas release coating and a carboxylic acid side multifunctional coating, wherein the total thickness of the basal membrane of the perfluorinated ion exchange membrane is 90-180 micrometers, the thickness of the perfluorosulfonic acid resin layer is 80-160 micrometers, the thickness of the perfluorocarboxylic acid resin layer is 8-16 micrometer, and the thickness of the two side surface coatings of the membrane is respectively 3-12 micrometers. The membrane can be prepared by a melt coextrusion or multilayer hot-press compounding technique. The membrane is used for an oxygen cathode electrolysis technique, is especially suitable for ion-exchange-membrane-process caustic soda production by a superhigh-current-density oxygen cathode electrolysis technique, and has favorable mechanical properties and electrochemical properties.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of macromolecular materials and electrochemistry, and in particular relates to an ion exchange membrane used in an ultra-high current density oxygen cathode electrolysis process and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] The chlor-alkali industry produces caustic soda and chlorine through electrolysis of brine, and at the same time produces hydrogen as a by-product. It is a basic chemical raw material industry that occupies an important position in the national economy. At present, the domestic caustic soda method is mainly the ion-exchange membrane method, and the electricity consumption cost accounts for about 60% of the production cost. Therefore, reducing electricity consumption is of great significance for improving the economic benefits of the chlor-alkali industry. Fundamentally speaking, the huge power consumption of the chlor-alkali industry is determined by its chemical reaction itself. ...
