Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of fuel cell catalyst coating layer CCM, and particularly relates to a fuel cell catalyst coating layer CCM batch production line system and method and a platinum loading online detection method. BACKGROUND

[0002] The fuel cell catalyst coating layer CCM batch production line is the core of the fuel cell membrane electrode production line, the catalyst coating layer CCM product is the key to the performance of the membrane electrode, the platinum loading is the key production parameter of the membrane electrode, directly affects the performance and cost of the membrane electrode, and is the core index concerned by the membrane electrode manufacturers and stack manufacturers. At present, the catalyst coating layer CCM batch production line generally has no platinum loading detection equipment, and cannot detect the platinum loading of different regions of the catalyst coating layer CCM product. The platinum loading of the catalyst coating layer CCM product can only be detected by offline sampling, and the sample results are used to replace the platinum loading results of the catalyst coating layer CCM product, which has a large contingency, inaccurate testing, and is easy to cause defective products to flow into the subsequent process, causing losses to the membrane electrode manufacturers and stack manufacturers. At present, some catalyst coating layer CCM batch production lines consider introducing X-ray spectrometer and other equipment to detect the platinum loading of the catalyst coating layer CCM in real time during the design process, but the introduction of the equipment will greatly increase the cost of the catalyst coating layer CCM batch production line, which is not conducive to cost optimization. During the batch production of the catalyst coating layer CCM, due to the thickness difference of the proton exchange membrane roll and the fluctuation of the coating system, the thickness of the catalyst layer of the prepared CCM product is inconsistent, which causes the difference of the platinum loading of the catalyst layer.
