Specifically, catalyst slurry is uniformly spun on a membrane electrode base membrane by adopting an electrostatic spinning method, the spun catalyst layer is fluffy and porous, and a channel is provided for smoothly transferring reactant water to a reaction site of catalyst particles, so that the performance of the membrane electrode is greatly improved; the spun catalyst layer contains a large amount of-OH,-NH2 and other groups, and a hydrophilic region formed by the groups can accelerate proton conduction and improve the performance of the membrane electrode; the process for preparing the PEM membrane electrode for hydrogen production through water electrolysis by adopting the electrostatic spinning method is simple in line, the raw materials are cheap and easy to obtain, continuous production can be realized, and the technology is the development direction of the PEM membrane electrode for hydrogen production through water electrolysis in the future.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of membrane electrode preparation, in particular to a method for preparing a membrane electrode for PEM electrolysis water hydrogen production by an electrostatic spinning method. Background technique [0002] With the development of society, the energy crisis has become the focus of global attention. Therefore, it is imperative to develop a new type of energy. However, because the transportation and storage of wind, solar and nuclear energy is very difficult, it is necessary to find a renewable and environmentally friendly new energy source. Hydrogen energy is highly efficient, non-polluting and can be easily produced. It is considered to be the most ideal and potential energy carrier in the future. Hydrogen production methods include methanol decomposition to produce hydrogen, ammonia decomposition to produce hydrogen, biological hydrogen production, solar hydrogen production, fossil fuel hydrogen production and wa...
