Problems solved by technology

PPy carriers with good conductivity and high stability in different shapes are involved in different fields, but the ordered PPy nanowire arrays grow on the surface of stainless steel as ordered catalyst carriers, through the H 2 The ethanol solution of the precursor salt of Pt is reduced to obtain the Pt catalyst and then transferred to the Nafion membrane to obtain the PtM-PPy electrode. The proton conductor Nafion is not used in the catalytic layer, and it has not been used in proton exchange membrane fuel cells.

Abstract

The invention relates to an ordered catalyst layer of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell. Fe, Co, Ni or alloy thereof is loaded on the surface of stainless steel, and then a carbon layer is prepared on the surface of the stainless steel through a CVD method. Then, an ordered PPy array is formed on the surface of the carbon layer through in-situ polymerization by an electrochemical polymerization method, so that the PPy array has the characteristic that the PPy array grows approximately perpendicular to the surface of the carbon layer. One or two kinds of metal are firstly loaded on the array, and then the PPy array coated with a catalyst is transfer-printed on a Nafion film, so that an ordered thin catalyst layer is constructed. The catalyst layer prepared with the method does not contain a proton conductor (such as Nafion), and the constructed ordered catalyst layer can be used for proton exchange membrane fuel cells, alkaline fuel cells and solid polymer water electrolysis pools.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of fuel cells and other electrochemical devices, and mainly relates to a preparation method of an ordered catalytic layer of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell. Background technique [0002] Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) have attracted much attention due to their advantages of high energy conversion efficiency, high power density, environmental friendliness, and fast start-up at room temperature. . The stability problem is mainly that the carbon support in the Pt / C catalyst is prone to corrosion and the proton conductor Nafion used in the catalytic layer is degraded. In order to solve these problems, 3M proposed ordered thin layer electrodes (NSTFs) without proton conductors on both sides of the catalytic layer. The three-dimensional ordered electrode structure makes the mass transfer of the reactants and products of the electrode significantly better than the traditional catalytic layer. Therefore, ...
