Problems solved by technology

The main problems of the membrane electrode CCM prepared by these methods are that the platinum catalyst has a high loading capacity, the cost cannot be reduced, the catalyst utilization efficiency is low, the catalyst layer is not ordered, resulting in large mass transfer resistance, and the lack of an effective three-phase reaction interface ( Wang Cheng, Zhao Bo, Zhang Jianbo. Key Technologies of Membrane Electrodes for Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells[J]. Science and Technology Herald, 2016,34(6):62-68)

Abstract

The present invention discloses an electrospinning and electrostatic spraying method for a membrane electrode CCM. According to the present invention, the catalyst layer having the nanometer film structure is obtained by using the electrospinning and electrostatic spraying method, wherein the catalyst layer structure has a high specific surface area so as to increase the three-phase reaction interface, increase the active area of the catalytic layer, and improve the catalyst utilization rate; the polymer nano-fiber membrane has high porosity, such that the mass transfer is easily performed, and the concentration polarization is effectively reduced; and the nano-scale catalytic particles obtained through electrostatic spraying are uniformly distributed on the nano-fiber structure so as to reduce the platinum loading and improve the catalytic performance.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an electrospinning and electrostatic spraying preparation method of a membrane electrode CCM. Background technique [0002] The fuel cell is highly efficient and environmentally friendly, and can directly convert the chemical energy of the fuel into electrical energy, and there is no heat engine work in the conversion process, and there is no limitation of the Carnot cycle, so the energy conversion efficiency is high (40% to 60%). Among them, the proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) is a zero-emission, high-efficiency and high-power-density power generation device, especially in the application of new energy transportation power, which has an extremely attractive prospect. The membrane electrode (membrane electrode assembly, MEA) is a heterogeneous material transport and electrochemical reaction site, which determines the performance, life and cost of PEMFC. MEA is a five-in-one component composed of a membrane / catalyst ...
