Abstract

The invention discloses a method for preparing and testing an ion-polluted Nafion film based on a fuel cell catalyst layer, and relates to the field of fuel cell testing. The Nafion solution with theconcentration smaller than 2 wt.% is self-assembled on an interdigital electrode with silicon as a substrate for 12-48 h, taken out, dried in the air and then soaked in an ion exchange solution of nitric acid and cobalt nitrate for 24 h or longer, and the ion-polluted Nafion thin film is obtained. Films with different pollution degrees are obtained by adjusting the solution ratio; and the conductivity change of the Nafion films with different pollution degrees is obtained by using an electrochemical method of an alternating current impedance spectrum. The influence of ionomer pollution causedby catalyst attenuation on proton conduction in the battery is reflected by testing the change of proton conductivity of the films with different pollution degrees. And the relationship is establishedamong the ion exchange solution ratio, the film pollution degree and the film conductivity. The pollution degree of the Nafion ionomer in the battery can be conveniently deduced through the conductivity test result of the battery protons. And development of related research on the attenuation mechanism of the battery after long-time operation is facilitated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of fuel cell testing, in particular to a method for preparing and testing an ion-contaminated Nafion film on a catalytic layer of a fuel cell. Background technique [0002] Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) is a kind of fuel cell, which is equivalent to the "reverse" device of water electrolysis in principle. Its single cell is composed of anode, cathode and proton exchange membrane. The anode is the place where the hydrogen fuel is oxidized, and the cathode is the place where the oxidant is reduced. Both electrodes contain catalysts that accelerate the electrochemical reaction of the electrodes. [0003] The relatively mature platinum-carbon catalysts cannot be compared with traditional batteries due to their higher consumption of platinum precious metals. The current research on platinum alloy catalysts shows that they can greatly reduce the platinum and precious metals while keeping the catalytic...
