Embodiment 1

[0064] 1) Preparation of gas diffusion layer:

[0065] Immerse Toray carbon paper in 5% PTFE aqueous solution, take it out and air-dry after fully impregnated, and weigh it. Repeat the above steps repeatedly until the PTFE load is about 10%. Mix XC-72 carbon powder with 60% PTFE aqueous solution relative to the total mass, dilute with ethanol, disperse under ultrasonic conditions for 30 minutes and stir evenly. The above-mentioned hydrophobic treated carbon paper was placed on a glass plate and fixed, and then the slurry was scraped on the surface of the carbon paper, weighed after air drying, and the above steps were repeated until the carbon powder loading was 0.4mg / cm2, and the gas diffusion layer was obtained.

Abstract

The invention discloses an ordered membrane electrode. The ordered membrane electrode comprises an ordered array carrier and a catalyst nanoparticle layer which is microscopically attached to the surface of the ordered array carrier, wherein the ordered array carrier vertically grows on the surface of a gas dispersion layer in situ or vertically grows on the surface of a metal layer attached to the surface of an electrolyte membrane in situ; the ordered array carrier is constructed by a conductive high-molecular polymer, or is constructed by a mixture of a conductive high-molecular polymer and an ionic conductor; the ordered array carrier microscopically has a conical structure or a stick-shaped structure. An ordered electrode catalyst layer is prepared by the following steps: (1) preparing an ordered array carrier; (2) preparing a catalyst nanoparticle layer through a magnetron sputtering method. Compared with the prior art, the membrane electrode has the advantages that an ordered conductive array is prepared on the gas dispersion layer or an electrolyte membrane, thereby contributing to mass transfer of gas, protons and electrons; a nano-thickness catalyst layer formed by the magnetron sputtering method has a small carrying amount and a high catalyst utilization rate; the ordered membrane electrode is simple and controllable in a preparation process, is easy to amplify, and is suitable for batch production.

Description
