Abstract

The invention discloses a proton exchange membrane which comprises sulfonic acid resin, an expanded polytetrafluoroethylene microporous membrane and a sulfonic acid resin sandwich structure, the expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) microporous membrane is subjected to SiO2 and / or TiO2 hydrophilic modification, and the surface of the expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) microporous membrane comprises a SiO2 and / or TiO2 membrane formed by atomic layer deposition. The preparation method of the proton exchange membrane comprises the following steps: firstly, carrying out plasma treatment on an ePTFE microporous membrane, then depositing SiO2 and / or TiO2 on the surface of the ePTFE microporous membrane by utilizing atomic layer deposition, finally coating two surfaces of the hydrophilic ePTFE microporous membrane with a sulfonic acid resin solution, and carrying out infiltration and curing to form the membrane. According to the proton exchange membrane disclosed by the invention, the ePTFE microporous membrane is subjected to SiO2 / TiO2 hydrophilic modification, so that the compatibility of the ePTFE microporous membrane and sulfonic acid resin is improved, and meanwhile, the water retention capacity and the mechanical property of the proton exchange membrane are improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of hydrogen fuel cells, and relates to a proton exchange membrane modified by expanded polytetrafluoroethylene microporous membrane and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] At present, the enhanced proton exchange membrane is mainly composed of perfluorosulfonic acid ion exchange resin (PFSA) that conducts protons and a reinforcing layer that supports PFSA sulfonic acid resin, and commonly used expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) microporous membrane.
