preparation example Construction

[0026] In a first aspect, the present application provides a method for preparing a fuel cell catalyst slurry, comprising the following steps:

[0027] Step S1) ultrasonically disperse the perfluorosulfonic acid solution at 50-90°C to obtain a perfluorosulfonic acid dispersion;

[0028] Step S2) mixing the perfluorosulfonic acid dispersion, the catalyst and the dispersion in deionized water to obtain the fuel cell catalyst slurry.

[0029] The preparation method of the catalyst slurry provided by this application can reduce the molecular size of the ionomer in the perfluorosulfonic acid solution by ultrasonically dispersing the perfluorosulfonic acid solution at a high temperature, and make the ionomer in the perfluorosulfonic acid solution The substance is fully dispersed to avoid its own agglomeration. Then, after mixing the perfluorosulfonic acid dispersion liquid treated with high-temperature ultrasonic treatment with catalyst, dispersant and deionized water, the ionomer ...

The preparation method of the catalyst slurry for the fuel cell comprises the following steps of S1) carrying out ultrasonic dispersion treatment on a perfluorosulfonic acid solution at 50-90 DEG C to obtain a perfluorosulfonic acid dispersion liquid; and S2) mixing the perfluorosulfonic acid dispersion liquid with a catalyst, a dispersing agent and deionized water, and emulsifying and dispersing to obtain the fuel cell catalyst slurry. By utilizing the preparation method, the problem of uneven dispersion of the proton conduction ionomer in the existing catalyst slurry can be solved, and the preparation method isused for improving the dispersity of the proton conduction ionomer in the catalyst slurry.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the field of fuel cells, in particular to a fuel cell catalyst slurry, a preparation method thereof, and a membrane electrode. Background technique [0002] A fuel cell is a power generating device that can directly convert chemical energy into electrical energy through an electrochemical reaction. The membrane electrode in the fuel cell is its core component, which is composed of proton exchange membrane, cathode and anode catalyst layer and gas diffusion layer. Usually, the preparation of the catalytic layer is to coat the catalyst slurry containing Pt catalyst, proton-conducting ionomer and dispersant on both sides of the proton exchange membrane, and form the catalytic layer after drying. Therefore, the uniformity of the catalyst slurry has an important impact on the microstructure of the formed catalytic layer, and directly affects the pore structure, porosity, hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity of the prepared m...
