Abstract

The invention discloses a bipolar membrane for a fuel cell and a preparation method of the bipolar membrane. The method comprises the following steps of casting an alkaline polymer solution onto an amphoteric metal substrate to form a membrane; separating the metal substrate and an alkaline thin membrane during ion exchange in an alkaline solution; and carrying out hot-pressing formation on an alkaline polymer membrane and an acid polymer membrane by taking the acid polymer solution as a binding agent. By the method, the thickness of the alkaline polymer membrane can be effectively controlled, favorable contact of the alkaline polymer membrane and the acid polymer membrane is achieved, thus, the resistance of the bipolar membrane is reduced, and the power density of the bipolar membrane fuel cell is effectively improved. The method is simple to operate, the prepared bipolar membrane is provided with a complete bipolar membrane interface, and has excellent mechanical property and high ion conductivity at a room temperature, and the performance of the bipolar membrane fuel cell is remarkably improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a bipolar membrane for a fuel cell and a preparation method thereof, belonging to fuel cell technology technical background [0002] Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) are power generating devices that directly convert the chemical energy in fuel and oxidant into electrical energy through electrochemical reactions. Proton exchange membrane fuel cell has become the fastest-growing and most mature technology among all kinds of fuel cells due to its many advantages such as high power density, high energy conversion efficiency, compact cell structure, fast start-up speed, low environmental pollution, and wide application fields. A type of fuel cell. However, further reducing the cost of PEMFCs and simplifying the water management auxiliary equipment for their operation at room temperature has been the focus of advancing the large-scale commercial application of PEMFCs. In recent years, with the development of alkaline a...
