Abstract

The invention relates to an ordered gas diffusion electrode, preparation and application thereof. The membrane electrode comprises a gas diffusion layer and a catalysis layer; the catalysis layer is an ordered catalysis layer, and is formed by interaction of conductive polymer nanowires arranged in an ordered array manner on the gas diffusion layer surface and phthalic acid diethylene glycol diacrylate (PDDA) doped on the surface of the conductive polymer nanowires with Pt catalyst particles. The ordered membrane electrode of the invention has the advantages of high utilization rate of precious metal Pt, high stability, and the like, can effectively reduces catalyst cost of fuel cells, and can improve the service life of fuel cells; meanwhile, the membrane electrode of the invention can effectively enhance the mass transfer of fuel in the catalysis layer, thereby improving the fuel utilization rate; the ordered membrane electrode of the invention can be used as a membrane electrode of proton exchange membrane fuel cells, direct liquid fuel cells, and proton exchange membrane water-type electrolytic baths.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an ordered gas diffusion electrode and its preparation and application, in particular to a gas diffusion electrode that can be used in a proton exchange membrane fuel cell, a direct liquid fuel cell or a proton exchange membrane type water electrolysis cell. The present invention also relates to a preparation method of the above ordered gas diffusion electrode. Background technique [0002] Due to its high efficiency and environmental friendliness, proton exchange membrane fuel cells have been paid close attention to by research institutions in various countries in recent years. Membrane electrode (MEA), as the core component of fuel cell, usually consists of gas diffusion layer, catalytic layer and proton exchange membrane. The catalytic layer is the place where the electrochemical reaction occurs in the membrane electrode assembly (MEA). The performance and stability of the catalytic layer largely determine the electrochemic...
