Abstract

The invention provides a bipolar membrane type direct borohydride fuel cell, comprising at least one battery unit, the battery unit includes a solid electrolyte membrane with ion-selective permeation characteristics; the battery unit is separated into two parts by the solid electrolyte membrane; The solid electrolyte membrane is a bipolar membrane, and the bipolar membrane is a three-layer structure composed of a cation exchange membrane layer, an anion exchange membrane layer and an intermediate interface layer between the two. The present invention adopts the bipolar membrane direct borohydride fuel cell, the cathode and the anode can adopt heterogeneous electrolyte, and can prevent the intermediate product produced by the anode fuel or the anode from penetrating into the cathode to generate a mixed potential, and can also prevent the cathode product from penetrating into the cathode. The anode reduces the polarization loss of the electrode, eliminates the mixed potential, and improves the fuel utilization rate and output power.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an alkaline fuel cell directly in liquid feed, in particular a direct borohydride fuel cell using a basic borohydride solution as a fuel, acidic hydrogen peroxide is an oxidant. Background technique [0002] Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell, PEMFC) is a power generation device that stores chemical energy stored in a hydrogen fuel and an oxidant by electrochemical reaction into a power generating device, which has cleaning, efficient, room temperature, and power. Advantages of high density, have broad application prospects in the fields of mobile power and fixed power plants, especially as automotive energy and portable power supplies. However, there is a fuel supply, storage, and transport challenge of the prismatic fuel cell for fuel, and the subsequent risk of the use process, forcing people to turn the attention to electrochemically oxidized liquid fuel, such as methanol, ethanol, and two. Methyl ether, borohydride, etc...
