TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of fuel cells, and particularly relates to a microporous layer preparation plate with an ordered pore structure and a preparation method. BACKGROUND
[0002] Proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) is an important carrier for realizing the "double carbon" goal as a green and efficient energy conversion device. The microporous layer is a key component in the fuel cell, which can improve the pore size distribution of the diffusion layer, reduce the contact resistance between the catalyst layer and the diffusion layer, and promote gas and liquid transport and heat transfer. Currently, conductive carbon black and hydrophobic agent polytetrafluoroethylene are commonly used in the preparation of microporous layers. Carbon black ensures conductivity, and polytetrafluoroethylene ensures drainage, thereby ensuring efficient operation of the battery.
[0003] The material type, preparation method and hydrophilic / hydrophobic property of the microporous layer will affect the performance of the PEMFC. After high-temperature treatment, larger crack structures will be formed inside the microporous layer, which can ensure that the reaction gas can be transmitted from the small pores between the particles to the catalyst layer, and the liquid water generated by the reaction can be discharged from the larger cracks. However, the existing disordered pore structure of the microporous layer cannot meet the requirements of gas and water transmission at high current density. Therefore, the focus of current research and development is to reasonably design the pore structure of the microporous layer and construct efficient gas and liquid transport channels.
[0004] Patent with publication number CN113241448B discloses a proton exchange membrane fuel cell gradient microporous gas diffusion layer and a preparation method thereof. Conductive carbon black, multi-walled carbon nanotubes and graphite sheets are respectively prepared into slurry I, slurry II and slurry III, and then coated on the surface of a hydrophobic carbon paper in different orders, dried and heat treated to obtain a microporous layer with a pore gradient and a hydrophobic gradient. The gradient design in the thickness direction of this microporous layer can improve water management, but the composition of the slurry is complex and the flow field distribution in the horizontal direction is not considered.
[0005] Patent with publication number CN115719818A discloses a fuel cell gas diffusion layer with an ordered structure and a preparation method thereof. The main structure and the network structure of the diffusion layer are prepared by using 3D printing technology, then carbonization treatment is performed, then the diffusion layer after carbonization is treated with a hydrophobic agent, and finally the microporous layer slurry is coated on the network structure of the gas diffusion layer by silk screen printing. This invention designs the pattern in the horizontal direction of the diffusion layer by 3D printing, but the design in the horizontal direction of the microporous layer is not considered.
[0006] There is no related report on designing the pore structure of the microporous layer referring to the flow field groove and ridge, and realizing ordering in the current technology. The present application provides a microporous layer preparation method with a pore structure having a flow field groove feature. SUMMARY

[0011] (2) The conductive carbon black, polytetrafluoroethylene and pore-forming agent polymethyl methacrylate are placed in anhydrous ethanol solution to prepare slurry I containing a pore-forming agent.
[0012] (3) The conductive carbon black and polytetrafluoroethylene are placed in anhydrous ethanol solution to prepare slurry II without a pore-forming agent.
[0013] (4) The positioning holes of the carbon paper cutter are used to cut positioning holes on the hydrophobic treated carbon paper. The groove mask plate is covered on the hydrophobic carbon paper by using the positioning holes, slurry I is sprayed on the carbon paper through the windows of the groove mask plate by an ultrasonic spraying method, and then the groove mask plate is removed. The ridge mask plate is still covered on the carbon paper sprayed with slurry I by using the positioning holes, slurry II is sprayed through the windows of the ridge mask plate to form a carbon paper substrate with two kinds of micro-porous layers.
[0014] (5) The carbon paper sprayed with the two kinds of slurry is placed in a muffle furnace for calcination, so that the polytetrafluoroethylene is melted and the pore-forming agent polymethyl methacrylate is decomposed, and a micro-porous layer with an ordered pore distribution under the structure characteristics of “groove” and “ridge” is obtained.
[0015] The micro-porous layer is a key component in a fuel cell, and gaseous reactants and liquid products flow through the micro-porous layer. The ordered micro-porous layer with the structure characteristics of grooves and ridges constructs large pore channels under the flow field grooves to improve gas-liquid transmission and realize large pore water and small pore gas; and constructs conventional pores under the flow field ridges to ensure electron conduction.
[0016] In the present application, the mask plate is used to make the microporous layer with ordered pore structure on the carbon paper. The final step is to bake the microporous layer slurry sprayed on the surface of the carbon paper, and the mask plate is used to divide the two kinds of slurry in the spraying process. The ordered pore structure is designed according to the flow channel ridge, which aims to produce large pores in the microporous layer directly above the flow channel, and to improve the gas-liquid transmission.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following characteristics:
[0018] (1) The mask plate with two structural characteristics can match the microporous layer pore structure with the flow channel, effectively improve the gas-liquid transmission capacity of the fuel cell, and further improve the power density of the cell.
[0019] (2) By using the mask plate to spray different slurries, the pore former can establish ordered pores on the gas-liquid transmission channel of the microporous layer, improve the gas-liquid transmission rate, effectively improve the heat and mass transfer function of the microporous layer, and meet the demand of the cell for rapid ventilation and drainage under high current density.
[0020] (3) The preparation and processing steps of the present application are simple, the raw materials and methods are economical and suitable, and only the mask plate and the pore former are added in the microporous layer preparation process, which is simple to operate and can be used for mass production.
[0021] (4) The establishment of the ordered pore structure of the microporous layer effectively improves the water management capacity, and the water generated in the cathode can enter the flow field along the established ordered pore structure, which can effectively improve the waterlogging phenomenon of the fuel cell.

In this way, the micro-porous layer under the groove sprayed with pore-forming agent generates a large number of pores after baking, meeting the requirements of rapid ventilation and drainage of the fuel cell; the micro-porous layer under the ridge sprayed with conventional slurry without pore-forming agent ensures its conductive performance after baking. The micro-porous layer with large pores under the groove and the micro-porous layer with conventional pores under the ridge cooperate with each other, simultaneously ensuring material transmission and electron transmission, which is conducive to improving the power density of the fuel cell.
