Abstract

The invention provides a low-temperature preparation method of a zirconium-based ceramic electrolyte membrane for a fuel cell. The low-temperature preparation method comprises the following steps: preparing a zirconium source precursor, which is obtained by mixing raw materials according to the ratio, into slurry; pressing and molding the ceramic slurry into a pointed cone array shape; carrying out copper ion and zinc ion doping, and sintering through microwave plasmas; after sintering for 0.5 to 1h, obtaining the electrolyte membrane. According to the low-temperature preparation method provided by the invention, plasmas are generated through microwave ionized gas, and are gathered on a micro-tip to form a point discharge effect, so that the ceramic membrane is rapidly heated; the doped copper ions and zinc ions can be used for effectively lowering the sintering temperature; meanwhile, added borane gas is added and is cracked, and the surface is densified, so that the uniform and denseceramic electrolyte membrane is obtained at low temperature, and furthermore, the disadvantages of a traditional zirconium-based ceramic electrolyte membrane that the sintering density under a low-temperature condition is low and the sintering time is long are solved. Furthermore, the low-temperature preparation method has very important practical significance of reducing the sintering temperature and the sintering time of zirconium-based ceramic electrolyte and improving the density.
