Embodiment 1

[0028] The schematic diagram of the test device is as figure 1 As shown, on a cylindrical polytetrafluoroethylene block with a diameter of 2 cm, 4 through holes arranged linearly along the central axis are machined, each with a diameter of 1 mm and a distance between the origins of 3 mm. Fix four platinum wires with the same diameter as the circular hole in the hole, and the distance between the end face of the platinum wire and the end face of the polytetrafluoroethylene block is 1 mm. Drop-coat 5% Nafion polyion solution on the end surface of the platinum wire, and apply it repeatedly after drying until the solid Nafion polymer completely covers the end surface of the platinum wire.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for testing ion conductivity in electronic conductors, in particular to a method for testing ion conductivity in electrode materials. The method is accurate and efficient, and can meet the test requirements of various energy devices. Background technique [0002] The ion conduction efficiency in the electrode is closely related to the performance, life and cost of new energy technologies such as fuel cells, metal-air batteries, and lithium-ion batteries. It is one of the determinants of the electrode reaction rate and interface establishment. Therefore, the efficient detection of ionic conductivity is a key technology for the preparation of electrode materials and structures. Different from the ionic conductivity test method of polymer materials such as ordinary Nafion membranes, electrode materials have both electronic conductance and ionic conductance, and the two are difficult to separate, so metals such as platinu...
