Problems solved by technology

In addition, when the CCM is further pressed with the gas diffusion layer to form a membrane electrode, an interface will be formed between the catalytic layer and the microporous layer, and liquid water will easily accumulate at this interface, thereby affecting the gas mass transfer process.

Abstract

The invention provides a method for preparing a fuel cell CCM membrane electrode, specifically spraying / screen printing catalyst slurry onto a transfer membrane to form a catalytic layer, and then transferring the catalytic layer onto a proton exchange membrane by hot pressing , to form a CCM electrode, which is a common preparation method for fuel cell membrane electrodes. However, in the process of preparing CCM by transfer printing, there are often problems such as the large adhesion between the catalytic layer and the transfer film, the uneven preparation of the catalytic layer, the uneven temperature and pressure of hot pressing, and the uneven temperature and humidity of the environment. The transfer is not complete, which leads to the failure of CCM preparation. The present invention proposes a transition layer method, which can reduce the adhesion between the catalytic layer and the transfer film, improve the transfer efficiency of the catalytic layer, and improve the water management problem between the catalytic layer and the microporous layer, and The resulting mass transfer problems, etc.
