Abstract

The invention discloses a preparing method for a corrosion-resistant gas diffusion layer of a fuel cell. The gas diffusion layer is composed of a micropore layer and a supporting layer. The preparing method includes the following steps: metallic oxide nano-powder is added into a dispersing-agent-containing aqueous solution, and stirring and ultrasonic dispersion are carried out till even suspension liquid is formed; then water repellent emulsion is added, and stirring is carried out till micropore layer slurry is formed; one side of the supporting layer is evenly coated with the micropore layer slurry, and low-concentration water repellent emulsion is sprayed to the other side of the supporting layer; the object is dried and placed into a nitrogen-charged dryer to be sintered, and the gas diffusion layer is obtained. By means of the gas diffusion layer obtained with the preparing method, it is effectively guaranteed that conductive materials and hydrophobic materials in the micropore layer slurry are evenly dispersed, the gas diffusion layer has the proper hydrophilic performance and the proper hydrophobic performance accordingly, the corrosion resistance and the stability of the gas diffusion layer are improved, and cost is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of fuel cell materials, and in particular relates to a preparation method of a corrosion-resistant fuel cell gas diffusion layer. Background technique [0002] Proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) core component membrane electrode assembly (MEA) is composed of gas diffusion layer, catalytic layer and proton exchange membrane. The gas diffusion layer (GDL) is located between the catalytic layer and the flow field, and its main function is to support the catalytic layer, collect current, and provide channels for the transport of reaction gases and product water. [0003] A typical gas diffusion layer is usually composed of a support layer and a microporous layer. The support layer is composed of porous conductive media such as carbon fiber paper or carbon cloth, and the microporous layer is generally composed of carbon powder and hydrophobic polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE). )constitute. The drainage per...
