Problems solved by technology

Although such an electrode can use the above-mentioned conventional deposition method to form a catalyst layer, it is also found that the electrode is unstable, the conductive substrate is easily exposed, and other shortcomings in performance.
[0010] In other aspects, due to the needs of use, the packaging of the electrodes is also used. However, most of these researches focus on the improvement of the movement, storage and anti-pollution of the electrodes. Generally speaking, such packaging belongs to Permanent packaging or one-time packaging, and the packaging material usually uses thermosetting resins. Therefore, it is difficult to simply and effectively recycle the internal electrode materials after use. Even if it is recycled, the effect of recycling such as conductive substrates is very poor.
[0011] Therefore, in the study of electrodes with electrocatalyst layers, there is still room for improvement in the study of reliability and reusability.
