AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In the existing PEM electrolytic system, it is difficult for the catalyst to maintain stability under acidic conditions, which limits the selection of catalysts and the stability of the system.

Method used

By doping commercial Nafion ionomers, CF3(CF2)nCH2OH small molecules are introduced to form modified Nafion ionomers (FOHn-Nafion) to optimize water channels and hydrogen bonded water networks and enhance the stability of the catalyst.

Abstract

The invention belongs to the technical field of energy materials, and particularly relates to a PEM electrolyzed water membrane electrode based on a modified Nafion ionomer and a preparation method of the PEM electrolyzed water membrane electrode. The modified Nafion ionomer provided by the invention is obtained by carrying out doping modification on a Nafion ionomer or a solid film, the modified Nafion ionomer is marked as FOHn-Nafion ionomer, and a doping agent is CF3 (CF2) nCH2OH; according to the invention, a Nafion solution is modified by heating and stirring, and a Nafion membrane is modified by an impregnation method; the modified ionomer and an anode catalyst are prepared into slurry, the slurry is sprayed to prepare a membrane electrode, and compared with original Nafion, the modified ionomer has better stability; the stability and the use value of a non-noble metal catalyst membrane electrode are effectively improved, and a noble metal catalyst is expected to be replaced, so that the application cost of PEM is reduced. In a PEM test, the voltage is 1.84 V under the current density of 1A cm <-2 >, good stability is kept, and the voltage is 10 times of the original voltage when the battery stably operates for 40 hours. The modification method is simple and suitable for mass production.
