For example: impregnation reduction method - impregnating the Nanfion membrane in Pt(NH 3 ) 4 Cl 2 In solution, Pt(NH 3 ) 4 2+ with H in the membrane + exchange, and then re-immerse the membrane in NaBH 4 In , the Pt is reduced to obtain a membrane electrode (B.-J.Hwang, Mat.Electrochem.Systems, 2001). The catalytic layer prepared by the impregnation reduction method is firmly combined with the membrane, uniform and dense, but the loading of Pt is not easy to control. Preparation It takes a long time and is not easy to mass-produce membrane electrodes; Vacuum sputtering method—using Pt as the cathode and Nafion film as the anode, applying high voltage, Pt is sputtered onto the Nafion film to form a catalyst layer to obtain a membrane electrode (Masaaki Katoh, J.Photoploymer Science and Technology, 2003), the vacuum sputtering method to prepare membrane electrodes can reduce the thickness of the catalyst layer and reduce the amount of Pt, but the process is complicated and expensive, which increases the preparation cost of membrane electrodes

Abstract

The invention discloses a method, device and application for rapidly preparing a membrane electrode driven by light. A polymer electrolyte membrane loaded with a metal macrocyclic compound is placed in a reaction device, and a platinum metal precursor and a reducing agent are added to the reaction pool.
