Abstract

The invention relates to a composite catalytic layer electrode for a phosphoric acid fuel cell and a preparation method of the composite catalytic layer electrode, and solves the technical problem that the utilization efficiency of electrode platinum for an existing phosphoric acid fuel cell is limited. The composite catalytic layer electrode is of a three-layer electrode structure, and more gas diffusion three-phase interfaces are formed, so that a catalyst is effectively in contact with an electrolyte layer, and the utilization efficiency of the noble metal catalyst is improved. The preparation method comprises the steps of carrying out hydrophobic treatment on an electrode carrier to obtain a first composite electrode layer; mixing a platinum-carbon catalyst with a fluorine-containing hydrophobic adhesive, and coating the first composite electrode layer with a mixture to form a second composite electrode layer; mixing the platinum-carbon catalyst with a polyphenyl imidazole adhesive, and coating the second composite electrode layer with a mixture to form a third composite electrode layer; and carrying out sintering treatment on an electrode obtained in the third step at a high temperature to prepare the composite catalytic layer electrode. The composite catalytic layer electrode prepared with the method has higher catalyst utilization efficiency and is applied to the phosphoric acid fuel cell, and the peak power is 640mw / cm<2>.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of fuel cells, and relates to a key component for a hydrogen-oxygen fuel cell, in particular to a composite catalytic layer electrode for a phosphoric acid fuel cell and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Phosphoric acid fuel cell is a kind of fuel cell technology, which is a medium temperature fuel cell with an operating temperature between 160°C and 200°C. This kind of fuel cell is characterized by good tolerance to impurities in fuel. Compared with proton exchange membrane fuel cells based on Nafion membranes, phosphoric acid fuel cells have lower requirements for fuel purity and stronger anti-poisoning ability. For example, the Chinese patent whose publication number is CN105009336 uses phosphoric acid fuel cells and hydrogen fuel containing anti-carbon monoxide, and the cells have higher anti-poisoning properties. [0003] The electrode is a key component of the fuel cell, and ...
